Can You BEElieve it?

Albert Einstein once said that if the
bees disappeared, "man would have only four years of life left."

Did he really say that?

What could possibly cause someone to say something like that?

It's true. My diet consists almost entirely of honey. :-)

Kat said...

earl- apparently he did. Because most of the world's crop supply depends on the pollination of bees.

buggy- You may have to give up your cell to support that diet ;o)

Bugger. We've had similar stories over here, too. If there's one thing we can't afford to lose, it's bees.

And it's not just most crops - it's ANYTHING with pollen. It's pretty much all plant life, basically.

That works out for me, since one time he ALSO said,

"when man has only 4 years left to live, every hot woman on the planet should attempt to have sex with slyde".

I just didnt question it at the time, but now I'm IN, baby!
