"Beeswings"
I was taughht that the arguement was that the force produced by the wing on it's down stroke (mathamatically)could not support the bee in flight. The authour was correct. (s)He did not take into account the vacume produced when the wings are pulled away from each other at the top! It doesn't matter whether it is true or not...it does make you think ;-)
Anyway its Burntwood then Bridgenorth (last one) then Fylde so see you in three weeks!!!!
