Hi tejek; Re your ability to believe the crap that the government tells you [about bees in this case, but the example readily expands to hundreds of other topics], here's what H. L. Mencken said about it: “The plain fact is that education is itself a form of propaganda - a deliberate scheme to outfit the pupil, not with the capacity to weigh ideas, but with a simple appetite for gulping ideas ready-made. The aim is to make 'good' citizens, which is to say, docile and uninquisitive citizens.” goodreads.com Carl, The important takeaway in all of this is that honey bee colonies have been collapsing at an inordinate rate the past ten years.
