On March 23/2013 I bought my GE GeoSpring 50-Gallon Hybrid Heat Pump Water Heater.

I've chosen the Interstate Appliance because of these reasons:

This is the very "valuable" statement for the forum of beekeepers.

Nonsense,

What is wrong with my post # 13? Please be specific.

What "they are actually saying" in these statements: "Some believe that the 4.9 mm cell impedes the Varroa Mite's ability to...

Nonsense,

I presented you the statement from the company, that you mentioned - not me.
And if the Mann Lake stated: "Scientifically, these claims have yet to be confirmed", that means THERE ARE...

From the Mann Lake Ltd. 2013 catalog (page 24):

I mentioned three studies on my website.

The second one "The efficacy of small cell foundation as a varroa mite (Varroa destructor) control" is by Ellis AM, Hayes GW, Ellis JD. Florida Department...

The fishing line works just as a guideline for 6-10 days...
In fact, to this day I have never used C-clamps. And to keep knots from untying I prefer to light all knots.

I've just uploaded my new short video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCUH3ZeHY04&feature=youtu.be

Some comments to this video:
Take a fishing line eight foot long.
Run/thread this line...

I will try to make a video.

You raised the very important questions.

Some reasons to replace honey/brood combs periodically:

- Honey combs and especially brood combs become smaller in size and dark over time, because of the cocoons embedded in the cells and because...

I like these sentences from the article titled "Decline of honey bees now a global phenomenon, says United Nations":
"A variety of factors are making these man-made colonies (interesting...

Nonsense not related to the beekeeping (maintained colonies) and to the above mentioned statistics.

On the one hand: "This is not the first time that beekeepers are being faced with unexplained losses. The scientific literature has several mentions of honey bee disappearances—in the 1880s, the...

Unfortunately, we are very close to the prediction of Rudolph Steiner.

Nonsense. I do not need it, because I know how Search Engines work. Here is my last statistics:

Start to read the post #33 from your new (quoted) statement: " Now that's a great way to avoid directly answering the questions posed to you personally..."

In addition, How much money do you...

Ian - how much money do you spend for syrups and medicine annually?
Could you show us the official test results, that I requested from Mark?

The post #33 from this thread.

Look at my main statement about onion more carefully - I said "IF":

It was not my question.

This is the main part of my question: "...your honey doesn't contain any (!) syrup or syrup's traces."
