Back in the day when I was bee crazy, I used to go to a forum called Beesource. I tried to do a search for it but unfortunately, I couldn't find it today. The guy that helped me the most was a guy by the name of Michael Bush. Here is the address to his website. I'd suggest you play on there for awhile. He is really a GREAT source of information.
