I think you are right on about GE. Once altered, proteins become foreign bodies that have never been in environment before. I wrote a novel about agricultural genetic engineering soon to become a feature film. Bee deaths are BIG problem, but tip of iceburg.

No, people will keep making awful jokes and then bitch when they paying a lot more for their food. It's a shame, but most of them think their food comes from the supermarket.
Interesting articles. As a Canadian bee keeper I haven't had CCD yet but I think that any analyses of this matter which does not include the effects of Chemtrails and Haarp will be simplistic at best.
The fact that you will judge "most Americans" on the actions of one man ensures me that YOU, in fact, are the one who is retarded. And they say WE over-generalize and stereotype people...
not really. fructose is fructose. The corn based fructose might have more carbon-13. Most honey isn't unprocessed. There may be other chemicals in the HFCS that aren't healthy for you. I prefer honey and turbinado sugar for my sweeteners. But overall I should cut back for my teeth and my health.
Dont think this is so funny....all you jokers out there. If your so called bio genetic engineering ,advanced insecticides, and pesticides start killing off all the bees... we're all screwed. whats so difficult to understand about that? Think about the few large bee farmers in North America.. who dont get any compensation when this happens. This insect in the reason most crops can survive, including trees and fruit. The bee is to be respected as a valuable part of our delicate ecosystem. As a matter of fact I would support legislation that would give grants to bee farmers who's populations have been affected by this issue. I think a 100 million dollar appropriation would be a good start.

They're in the mouths of dogs, so that when they bark bees shoot out. Duh.

Nope, corn wheat, and most grains would continue as normal. They use the wind, not insects.
