<div dir="ltr">Dear Peter:<div><br></div><div>True, but what surprises me most is that people from 22-45 in these countries appear far more likely to say no to bees than those who are younger AND those who are older than they.  What increases bee-anxiety in your early 20's in Asia and doesn't decline until well into middle age?  My only thought is that people are raising their children in their homes from 22-45 and become a lot more protective.  Those under 22 (without property or offspring) still find bees "groovy" (to be more modern).  After 45 the empty nest syndrome begins and people begin to mellow.  The kids are gone.  Let the bees move in as they are better behaved than most borders.  I will say more.  Dr Droege is concerned that comments I forwarded  previously might upset some members.</div><div><br></div><div>Peter    </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jul 21, 2016 at 9:57 AM, Peter Kevan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pkevan@uoguelph.ca" target="_blank">pkevan@uoguelph.ca</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="font-family:times new roman,new york,times,serif;font-size:12pt;color:#000000"><div>But it is so terribly modrern!  <br></div><div><br></div><div>Where are the vouchers?  </div><div><br></div><div>Peter</div><div><br></div><hr><div style="color:#000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt"><b>From: </b>"Peter Bernhardt <a href="mailto:bernhap2@slu.edu" target="_blank">bernhap2@slu.edu</a> [beemonitoring]" <<a href="mailto:beemonitoring-noreply@yahoogroups.com" target="_blank">beemonitoring-noreply@yahoogroups.com</a>><br><b>To: </b>"任宗昕" <<a href="mailto:renzongxin@mail.kib.ac.cn" target="_blank">renzongxin@mail.kib.ac.cn</a>>, "Wendy Grimm" <<a href="mailto:wagrimm@tpg.com.au" target="_blank">wagrimm@tpg.com.au</a>>, "IRENE PALMER" <<a href="mailto:i.a.palmer@talk21.com" target="_blank">i.a.palmer@talk21.com</a>>, "Graham Pyke" <<a href="mailto:Graham.Pyke@uts.edu.au" target="_blank">Graham.Pyke@uts.edu.au</a>>, "Bee United" <<a href="mailto:beemonitoring@yahoogroups.com" target="_blank">beemonitoring@yahoogroups.com</a>>, "Pollinator List-serv" <<a href="mailto:pollinator@lists.sonic.net" target="_blank">pollinator@lists.sonic.net</a>><br><b>Sent: </b>Wednesday, July 20, 2016 4:00:15 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>[beemonitoring] Fwd: Example of what NOT to do [1 Attachment]<br><div><br></div>
