		<description>Sorry I've been busy. The training has to do with singing, more of an incantation really. It is a cross between magic and simple Pavlovian conditioning. Well that and you need to capture a live zombie to use for training. You smother marshmallow goo on the chained zombie's neck while humming In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida which invokes the spirit of Babbulpheesh who tells the bees to sting the zombie in the back of the neck. Repeat until the bees will perform the task when you say, "Bisquik." The mashmallow goo doesn't do anything except humiliate the zombie. The bee venom works its magic on the stung zombies by causing the zombie to confuse other zombies for luscious human brain sundays and proceed to rip apart every zombie near by.

I hope that helps. I did attempt to add this information to the Zombie Defense Wiki (http://www.zombiesurvivalwiki.com/?t=anon) but I didn't get past signing up and filling out some questionnaire. I answered to the question, Favorite Zombie Book? "That is tough. I would say a toss up between Dianetics by L Ron Hubbard and Godless: The Church of Liberalism by Ann Coulter. The zombie-ist agenda is all around us."

Take care.</description>

		<description>But how do you train the bees to attack the zombies, Zoe???  I've tried everything, but bees (so far) seem very hard to control.  Tough love, incentive programs, etc, I just can't get the bees to listen...</description>

		<description>Now you have a bee theme along with the clear and present zombie danger theme. Nice.

I immediately thought of Chuck.

But then I read the article you linked to "shortage of bees" at AC - Associated Content, and learned for the first time of a thing referred to as "Colony Collapse Disorder." I've known about the disappearing bees since they were playing hive bars in Cincinnati, and I've never heard this slick medical dub for the vanishing bee phenomena. Otherwise the whole article felt like something I'd read before, nothing new, except for this "disorder." How do you call something a disorder when you have no idea at all what is happening but can see symptoms? Oh wait you join the APA and make them up. And "Colony Collapse Disorder" is obviously someone's cool attempt to coin a phrase. How can something be called a collapse disorder? Nothing is collapsing. The bees are disappearing. They are not dying. They are disappearing. When a colony "collapses" it isn't because of poor infrastructure, ponzi-schemes involving hive mortgage investments held by bears, and nobody knows if anything physical or mental is going on with the bees, primarily because they are disappearing. As Matt Weller so smartly points out in his article for the BBC, "It is officially called Colony Collapse Disorder, but a more pithy way of describing it would be Vanishing Bee Syndrome."

Then I asked myself who the heck is Associated Content? What a rip-off name for any company. "Hello my name is zoe and I am with Associated Print, y'know the knock-off news network." After some quick research I came to the hasty and judgmental conclusion that AC is the smarter more cunning evil older brother of ezinearticles.com. There is a little of their mother in both of them with rampant grammatical errors, and from their father they acquired a terrible inadequacy of content. But hey at least they are theoretically paying their contributors and from a random sampling of articles they weren't ALL bad. 

But we are talking about the bees here. I wish I had somewhere to keep a bunch of bees. Things are so bad these days that there are mobile bee rental trucks that be contracted to come and pollinate your crops. At first I thought this answered the question of how one would transport their free bees, but all it did was raise more questions in my mind. How do they get them all in the truck. Maybe the bees are "missing" because the negligent bee transport drivers are leaving a few bees lost and confused at every farm they visit. And the poor bees are forced to become Lassie and all the missing bees are really wandering the interstate looking for their hive that keeps driving away.

And yes, you should get the bees. It is a little known fact that bees are the ultimate weapon against zombies. With minimal training even a small swarm of bees can take down thousands of zombies. The venom in a bee sting metabolizes into a zombie-toxin in the zombie nervous system that causes the zombie to begin attacking other zombies which repeats the process until the entire horde of zombies consumes itself. The bees do require training as the sting must be perfectly placed at the back of the zombies neck; and in fact Arianna, bees do prefer making honey not war. Don't worry though, once you have the bees delivered you can easily find ads for this service in the back of various gun and ammo magazines of which I am sure you already subscribe. You will find the bees adapt easily to fighting the army of darkness.

In fact this information is so important I need to go and immediately add this to the wiki as a sub-topic to "Colony Collapse Disorder" and "Thetan".</description>
