      <title>Interesting stuff: keeping bees</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Author &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/user/xC0000005"&gt;xC0000005&lt;/a&gt;
on &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/"&gt;Kuro5hin.org&lt;/a&gt; has been keeping
bees and writing about it in his diary.  Today he also posted
a fascinating story about it,
&lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/10/27/19408/317"&gt;Lessons from the Hive&lt;/a&gt;.
Check it out.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;If you like the story, you will want to read his &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/user/xC0000005/diary"&gt;diary
entries&lt;/a&gt;.  In them he
tells how he &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/4/25/05529/5649"&gt;acquired his honeybee colony&lt;/a&gt; and then watched it &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/5/5/13631/73233"&gt;struggle&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/5/24/21939/0817"&gt;grow&lt;/a&gt;,
&lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/6/25/25053/7508"&gt;produce&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/10/3/35515/8183"&gt;decline, and fail&lt;/a&gt;, ultimately to be &lt;a href="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2005/10/3/35515/8183"&gt;replaced a few days ago
by a swarming colony&lt;/a&gt; that happened upon his failing colony&amp;#8217;s hive &amp;#8211; a
great stroke of luck.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#8217;s &lt;em&gt;interesting stuff.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
