        It's about time we begin to recognize the real intelligence of many of the so-called lower living creatures at work here on Earth.

        That is based on the wonderful work that they do so well, without having to train them to roll a ball to prove they are smart!

        At the end of his amazing life studies, Darwin thought earthworms were intelligent and performed an important service for the soil.

        It is hard to believe, but all insects including bees have 15 different pairs of legs and I can truly prove it mathematically!

        Can you figure out why I am totally correct and willing to bet any amount of money that I am correct? Biology students can reply.

        Will this save their hives? Or just prepare them to work as street performers?

        Worker bees are smarter than liberals because they know the enemy and they fight to protect their hives. They produce honey.
