@Ace
Just in case my "Loading Bench" reference (above) went un-noticed, pls allow me to clarify:

I do have a 30 yr old Bone to pick with the NRA - I'll talk to them.
The reason the NRA has so many [2nd Amendment] supporters, is: There are a lot of good, hard working people in this country that don't think ...

I wonder if Bees would love to have some (2nd Amendment) rights to exercise against the life sucking Varroa.
Cheers!
