Well, you might think it's rude, buy I want a future for my
grandchildren. A future where not everything is synthetic, where there
are flowers and fruit to eat. And without bees there is no such future.

help people heal.

bees are not gonna be extinct bottom line so stop worring about it
i was only saying where i live there is no sign of bees dissapearing
bees here are a big health hazzard to our pets and children and old
folks they are more abundant than flies

einstien was only stating a fact
really bees have been around since the beginning of time
their number is countless as was the number of the human population was
at the time einstien was alive
so take that with a grain of salt

i would be more worried about what the oil indrustry and war is doing to
our earth than the bees

Sclerosis. I saw that show,too, a while back. Very interesting.

I was looking into the therapy for myself.

A natural way for the body to release it's own pain killer... neat!

Hi Sheila. I have also seen that thing where bee stings are used to help
arthritis patients. Also some other stuff.
While I have no real love for bees. I do. I have no love for flies, but
I do. There is a reason for everything on earth. Bees are used to
polinate much of our food resourses. I also do not want all that I eat
to be scientific or imitation. It is hard to find foods that are not
artificially injected or fed with something. Science may be great in
many ways, but it is also screwing around with our health by placing
chemicals in our foods.
I was on a job site a couple of times...and where we were there were
hundreds of bees dead. I asked if they had been sprayed. I was told
"no".
As for people dying fron bee stings. It is unfortunate. But we live with
things that kill us all the time: Such as cars. I don't see them leaving
any time soon. I'm more afraid of being killed in a car than a bee
sting. I have a sister that is alergic to bees. She still will not kill
them. She just stays away from where they are.
I have been bitten by A brown recluse spider...twice. I still do not
kill them. I try to find a way to move them outside. I guess I am just a
softy.* Disclamer: I do however have the house treated to prevent them
from coming in.

what day? LOL!

Killer bees came to us by folks bringing african bees.

The africanized bees breed, breed some more...

humans brought them here. Not a natural thing.

Other species pollinate as well... birds, butterflies...the wind...

Lisa I'm shocked you said "

yes i did mention that i was a member of the american federation of
scientists and yes i do study the effects of gravity on debris that is
knocked out of orbit but that dont pay the bills for me

so some of us do have to earn a living, as far as eating fruits and
vegatsbles and grains i do believe the worry of bees disapearing from
the earth is no worry, i believe eienstien's
beliefs are based on the mind of a mad man sure one can say that
all mankind would dissapear from earth if all the bees were to dissapear
that is the same as saying if all the grains of sand turned to dust we
would choke to death. perhaps the occurances of bees disapearing from
keepers nests are because the bees know they are not to be kept in
captivity.
if you really believe that the production of all foods such as the ones
the bees pollenate will diminish then we as sientists have failed in our
jobs to create a way of keeping our sources
from being totaly in the hands of mother nature
get real do you honestly believe that the threat of bees disappearing
will cause mass starvation"







Do you have any idea what are you talking about in your post.

Being a plant collector and a gardener and doing Botanical researches on
influence of bees in pollination, and genetical modifications caused by
different groups of pollinators. I have seen results that could make
anyone to shrug and to make them to have nightmares for the rest of
their lifes.



You, Lisa better stick around sexual threads ... you are you are
brilliant and quite qualified on these kind of topics.

Amen
