[BITList] Birds do it, bees do it

[HUGH]

John,

An interesting addition to the collection of biographies.

And it contains an instance of how different disciplines use the same words 
differently.  I read that Henry Bell built the Comet steamship, whereas 
standard histories of the vessel say John Wood built it for Henry Bell who 
paid for it.  On the other hand, a lady in New Zealand once gave me evidence 
her umpteenth great grandfather built it, along with the other shipwrights 
and other trades employed by Wood in his Port Glasgow yard.

Hugh.
