I know everyone hasn't received their magazine yet but I have a couple of questions that I hope won't land me on the black list.

Dave, you mentioned Jeff's article but this is open to everyone, especially Jeff. Near the end of page 8, talking about LMB recruitment, what is meant by "The pond is not sheltered by trees and has a substantial "fetch" regardless of wind direction."

Also, in the write-in section. What is it in fire ants that kill BG??
Are they poisonous? My only exposure to fire ants was the site of a friend's daughter making the mistake of riding her big wheel over a nest. For a little girl, she had some vocals once they laid into her !
