    Maybe RTD is a bee keeper and it's nothing to do with a story ark just subliminal messaging.
    Apparently 99% of all beekeepers are hobbyists, only 1% do it as a paid job.

    When I last read that stat it was 99% of all beekeepers in the world, although the following story (again about the disapearances) seems to say its 99% in the UK.

    Of course it could be both :D

    Just reading up on the bee/adipose link

    http://www.mari-el.ru/homepage/nadir/poison.html

    Looking at bee stings, they apparently have an effect on ADIPOSE metabolism..

    http://sportsci.org/encyc/adipose/adipose.html

    It talks about using the fat as fuel, amongst other things.

    So will letting the adipose go be related to the bees disappearing? Thus impacting on the series arc?

    :eek:

    We have three pet rats in the Debian household!

    Wasps are quite important in the general scheme of things as well.

    My step-mum is starting out as a 'hobbyist' but wants to eventually venture into honey based products. They have lots of farmers markets where she lives so she's gonna target them.

    Well, it's been known for a long time (at least 2 years) that bees are disappearing, and mentioning it is probably more of an attempt to be topical than a prediction, but the sat-nav incident, OK, that is a bit wierd! :eek:
    And as for this, now that is disturbing! :eek:
