Oops- could someone move this to off-topic?

Not that the 944 guys shouldn't contemplate this as well.

Crap- right you are speedy. In fact, One bee eats the nectar and pukes it into another bee who processes and then pukes it for your enjoyment. Dammit, I am not happy about being incorrect.

I was wondering about that myself. I know that bees use honey for food, so I was curious why they needed to gather nectar. If they ate honey, and they pooped honey they'd be perpetual motion machines.

We almost solved a great mystery of the universe! If only we could get our 944's to be perpetual motion machines by plumbing the exhaust into the intake, this way there would be no need for fuel or O2.

This thread is now 944 tech related and can stay in this forum???

Honey is the only food that never spoils. Think about that

Honey also contains traces of botulism (spelling?) spores, which is why you are not supposed to let really young kids eat it...

Hmmm. I think the honey industry would probably suffer a bit if they called it "regurgitated pollen". Sales would plummet.

I used to love chorizo, until I read the ingredients.

People eat a lot of nasty stuff. You are what you eat. Well..you draw your own conclusion.
