He lost me with "We have evolved alongside the honeybee in a symbiotic relationship".
Er, yeah. If there's that much BS in the first sentence, I really don't want to listen to him, any more.

But you don't need an over-hyped hive for that.

Manual and machine pollination is a lot more widespread than many would imagine. I don't think there are many arable farms that don't do it at least a little.
People don't do it because there aren't enough bees; they do it because it's quicker, more efficient, and gives more predictable results.

It's not really BS: Honeybees have been bred to do well in hives (and produce more honey) than wild bees. If you like, they have been domesticated in the same way that dogs have been "evolved" from wolves - and both sides have gained as a result in just the same way.

That's not evolution, it's genetic engineering -- the blunderbuss variety that was used for thousands of years before we figured out how to do it properly.
The only evolution I see is the evolution of the kind of marketing BS used for the clip.
I just can't listen to cr@p like that; it brings me out in hives.

I think you might be overreacting - forget the BS; look at the product.

Yeah. Bit of a joke, isn't it.
We want to improve things for the bees, my @rse.
The best thing you can do to improve things for the bees is leave the poor buggers alone. They don't need us in their lives or hives.
"We want YOUR MONEY for this cheap trash that you'll junk within two seasons!!!" is the real message.

I take it you don't like honey? Or Bees? Or Beekeepers?
|
|
|
|
|
Sure, I like honey; I spend a fortune on it.
I just don't like people who are all mouth and trousers trying to sell me K-Tel style garbage.

Does the device not work as advertised?
|
|

The advertising is so much bigger than the device that it can't possibly work so well.
Have you ever done anything involving honey? That contraption will be a sticky, sh1tty mess beyond all hope of salvation after a single jarful has been extracted -- and the stuff you extract will be so full of bits and cr@p that you'll have to send it to an oil refinery to have it cleaned.
But that's only if you can con the bees into using it.
It's a completely stoopid idea, accompanied by apple-level marketing bullsh1t.

I didn't know Leslie Nielsen was a beekeeper!!!
I'd rather be phishing!

Leslie has done everything.
Twice in most cases!

Nice

The idea is so ingenious...
They raised 3.1 million, where the plan was 70 thousands!
I looking for some years to keep bees for honey - now all I need is that $600 to spare...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
