    Simple explanation.

    If you say so then it must be so!

    I would have never looked at it in such a light. I thought George W. Bush was behind it in order to stop Granola production and limit the political lefts food supply.

    Oz to the rescue, again:

    from fisherking's article: "...a beekeeper from Columbus, Mont., said he spent $150,000 in the last two weeks buying 1,000 packages of bees — amounting to 14 million bees — from Australia.

    He is hoping the Aussie bees will help offset the loss of one-third of the 7,600 hives he manages in six states..."
    Agri-business using illegal aliens to do work the US bees no longer want to do for such low wage/forage. Heh.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    I wonder if all those Australian bees just run around saying "wtf mate" when they find out they are in the U.S.

    Well, if I understood correctly these ruthlessly slay and eat their would-be native friends, which would seem to exhaust the possibilities of this, uh, conversation ( Monty Python ) rather quickly...
