  • MorganMghee, on 07/03/2008, -11/+68Problems for motorists? MOTORISTS?!! There is a global bee die off going on, we can't get people to pick the freakin fruit or till the soils, do you think we're going to get them to hand pollinate the food crops? Those bees were more valuable than gold...

  • PhonicUK, on 07/03/2008, -1/+11It was the lack of commentary. We are so used to a guy speaking over news articles that it's weird without them.

  • footfwd, on 07/03/2008, -1/+9On a side note, i bet the amateur didnt' get paid for this video, milllllions of people will see it.
    BBC has a terrible reputation for not paying for " handouts." Balls to that.

  • benroy, on 07/03/2008, -2/+8Fortunately the accident was cause by a collision with another truck carrying Black Bears. The situation should really just take care of itself.
    Oh, except for the bears wandering the motorway.

  • Cyberbladewolf, on 07/03/2008, -1/+6We can only pray they're allergic.
  • Borgcube636, on 07/03/2008, -2/+7The internet is not something you can just dump bees on, it's not a big truck
  • DrMilkdad, on 07/03/2008, -0/+4No, not the BEES, NOT THE BEES! THEY'RE IN MY EYES, AHHHHH!
  • cdigioia, on 07/03/2008, -0/+4But less bloody, so I'm sure it all works out in the end.
  • gn0stik, on 07/03/2008, -4/+8Really, Where are all the dead bees? Funny thing about this "die off".... No Carcasses. Nobody knows where the bees are going. Oh, you also forgot to mention, that most of those bees that have "died off", are farm raised bees like these.

    Oh, and it's kind of stupid to imply that the lives of the motorists who may be allergic is not important in comparison to these bees who were likely unhurt, for the large part.
  • KableKiB, on 07/03/2008, -0/+4Good luck buying your groceries with with gold bees.
