The bumble bees do pretty well under stressful conditions (heat and cold). They have been selected on our organic farm, and we strongly select for plant vigor. If the plants don't consistently produce (well enough for us to carry their weight on our farm) they don't make the cut.

You're making me hungry, with all the talk about oysters etc. Good luck with your event.

I was hoping to show up, but with the playoffs my customer changed the schedule on me.

I think they were afraid I might get in trouble cheering for Green Bay there...

No need to fear the wine-sipping 49er fans.

Never thought I'd say this. But I love the 49ers. Harbaugh is amusing, and the team is fun to watch.
