Hello Jim & All,
Thanks for the post! Always like to hear your opinion!

>But none of the
existing stuff has been linked to CCD in any compelling way as yet,
so we simply don't know what sort of test(s) we might need.
I think we need to get those blinders off and get you to understand we need
to get started fixing the things which the CCD team found. Such as European
foulbrood ( EF instead of the typo Eu in a post today), Varroa problems,
tracheal mite issues, contaminated comb and poor nutrition.
You asked me about what I know that about CCD you do not. Ok.
From conversation from those involved and close to the problem I
have learned that it is very doubtful anything new found through research
*if found* can be proven ( beyond a doubt) as the cause of the current die
off.
The recommendation I have been told is too fix all the "existing stuff" (
Jim's description of known problems) and then the CCD team can do a better
job of searching for the missing bees.( and yes taken up by aliens was a
joke Jim).
Bob
