Hi, I was wondering if it isn't time to step back and rethink this whole neonic issue.
 
Wasn't that just one idea that people came up with to explain CCD and now have realized that it is without merit?  Why are beekeepers still carrying on about it?
I understand that early neonics were quite toxic to bees, but that much progress has been made in that regard (i.e. Assail and Calypso).
