IN THE winter of 2006 beekeepers in America noticed something odd—lots of their hives were dying for no obvious reason." And the pesticide/chemical industry is still in denial. Evidence is growing that commonly used pesticides, even when employed carefully, are bad for bees (and us?) (It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that as bees move from flower to flower they are gathering more and more of these toxic chemicals. Their little immune systems can't handle it and this weakness makes them vulnerable to all sorts of viruses and illness. Beyond this, we humans eat the honey they work so hard to make. Connecting the dots could it be that the same pesticides sprayed on the food we eat be a cause for the massive alzheimers epidemic also? pdjmoo)
