    You're probably right, Doc!

    I just hope that this particular wasp woke up today with a crushingly sore head and a pervasive sense of shame at his behaviour yesterday!

      And if he is of a particular philosophical bent he might contemplate the ultimate question - to bee or not to bee.

        Actually, Ms Diddles, worker wasps, bees & ants are neutered females. Male Hymenoptera exist ONLY for Reproduction, and then they die, die, DIE!!! (Insert Maniacal Laughter here.)

        And now you know.

            10 minute movie trailers that show you EVERYTHING that's worth seeing in the damn film. This is ESPECIALLY true of comedies that make a deliberate effort to show EVERY humorous scene. Or thrillers/mysteries that give away the ending.

So what is there for me to be bitter at?
              Im not to swayed either way about the so called scientific evidence , there has been shown enough stand alone evidence that makes him a better suspect than the ones that have been mention. The way i read your comment , the bitterness comes from the fact you just dont like that Thompson as a suspect . Even when the evidence presented confirms he indeed make a excellent one .

                I'm not bitter. I just don't see Thompson as a good suspect.
