>>I wonder how many of the studies we see and accept are hopelessly flawed, yet make it to PowerPoint presentations or slip through to publication of one sort or another. 

Pete,

Your concerns are right on the money.  And it's not just related to bee research.  Here is a couple papers on the subject from medical sources:

If healthcare providers can't be sure of the results they read, who can?  Makes one think, they have to perform the study oneself to be certain of its accuracy.
