    Regarding the Wednesday story: "Bee Fee is Not So Sweet for Homeowner-Apiarist."

    Here is an educational lesson for the members of City council and Tom Nevin's neighbour . . . the reason you have fruit and vegetables to eat is because bees have pollinated the trees and plants when they were in bloom.

    We desperately need bees — lots of bees — if we want to eat. No bees equals no food! I'm shocked to see that you folks don't know this simple fact of life!

    Honesty, do you really not know this?

    So leave Tom Nevin and his bees alone.

    In fact, plant yourself some fruit trees and vegetable gardens and invite Tom's bees over; you'll have a yard full of food like you've never tasted before.

    And maybe Tom will share some of his delicious honey with you, too.
