go to this link, it's the story of using bees to find WMD, terrorist bombs, etc... Whew! does the industry NEED this kind of advertising?

And my guess is it's not hard to train the bees. Just put out some syrup with a little nitro in it and they will key in on the smell. Next time they smell it they will think it's a nectar source. All you need is tiny transmitters on the bees so you can follow them electronically instead of having to look for them by eye. http://www.beesource.com/ubb/smile.gif

If only they didn't go on strike in bad weather.

That's true. Those bees sure are wusses when it comes to bad weather. But they're not bad on long marches.

Says it's revenue for 2002 was $339 million. I thought I just make some money from selling some honey. Looks like I let another great idea pass me by. http://www.beesource.com/ubb/smile.gif
