Bob, sometimes it may be better for me to remain silent.  Here is what Dr.
Pettis replied when I asked him about the above quote verbatim:

"Randy,

I know of no novel product produced by the combination of fluvalinate and
coumaphos.  I assume I talked about dual exposure and that we could not
predict what would happen with the combination of the two miticides.  I
would have shown data on the effects of fluvalinate and or coumaphos on
queens and speculated about the combination of the two."
