Thank you for expressing your opinion. The tone of your writing clearly expresses your vitriol.
We are both beekeepers. We obviously care about improving honey bee populations, and so honey bee health is of vital importance.
I think this is good opportunity for me to describe more about what Best Bees is. As a matter of fact, Best Bees Company is nonprofit. Even though people who found and run nonprofits are allowed to take a salary, I have never taken a penny's pay. Everything I do is to generate money for research. My time and my resources are donated.
You are correct that I live in the South End of Boston. I have communted to Davis Square for work and school since 2005. I love it there! Why else would I continue to spend the far majority of my waking hours there?
I am proudly finishing up my Ph.D. in biology in the Davis Square area this August. My research funds will run out at that time. Unfortunately, our stellar honey bee research lab has never received a grant! And it's not for lack of trying, that's for sure. I hope that Best Bees Company will fund my research on honey bee health after I graduate - research that can truly change the world.
Specifically, in 2008, I won a $10,000 prize from The Dow Chemical Company for the develop of broad-spectrum, subunit vaccines for honey bees. I filed a patent and started a nonprofit. Please read my blog (www.bestbees.com/blog) for my stories about applying for research grants. Grants are tough to get! All I can do is keep on applying and never give up.
I can only hope that after reading this, you will be convinced that Best Bees Company is a very good thing that deserves a voice in Davis Square.
Saving the world, one honey bee at a time.
