Hello Peter & All,

All I can say is what % of the two and a half million colonies in the U.S. 
are our experts going to document. What % of the 30,000 bees in each hive? 
How often will the research be updated/ How many USDA-ARS researchers will 
be involved?

My pet peeve right now is Nancy P. (congress)  adding a 160 million dollar 
farm bill earmark to pay salmon fisherman for sitting on their butts while 
bee research gets not near enough research funds!

160 million dollars without a vote!
