Hello everyone. I have arrived here by the good graces of RE from the Doomstead Diner and hope to provide stimulating information on topics such as energy, innovations, truth and consequences.
I, A. G. Gelbert, will be the administrator.
I hope all who come can argue about everything under the sun and anything else they think of but I just ask you to keep it rational.
Here are the rules for those who didn't read them well when they registered.

Bees can find the most efficient route between flowers faster than a supercomputer can.
Bees navigate by recognizing patterns and symmetry, and although they have very small brains, they are one of the most efficient species in terms of navigation, scientists have found. In fact, research shows that bees are better than even supercomputers at finding the shortest route between many flowers without visiting the same flower twice. The problem-solving abilityof bees is thought to be because of the bees’ need to preserve as much energy as possible to find food and make their way home.
More about bees: Honey bees might fly as far as 6 miles (9.7 km) away from their hives to find food.
Other than humans, bees are thought to be the only species that communicates with symbolic language or about things that are not present at the time. Bees use “dances” to communicate with one another.
Bees have three sets of eyes and are able to sense movements that are one-300th of a second apart, or the equivalent of individual a single frame of film during a movie.

A standard Movie goes at 30 FPS not 300. So Bees are either an order of magnitude faster, or you dropped an extra Zero in by accident.

Hi AG,
In re this-

This would seem to preclude cross-posting articles from most other websites unless they expressly post a Creative Commons license, yes? Am I understanding your intent correctly?
Nice forum.
