Dear bee listers,

I have never taken sides in the GM controversy. On the pro-side, it has 
definitely reduced the number of pesticide kills from cotton spraying 
(although not eliminated them), so this perhaps overshadows any negative 
effects. I have not seen any obvious detriment.

Here is another side to the story. If these effects are seen in mammals, how 
can there not be effects on bees?

Food for thought...
