This email came in this morning and I am passing it on.

This video on the effects of neonics in Japan.  They have been dealing 
with this issue for quite some time by the looks of it.  The application 
they refer to is primarily foliar not seed treatments.

I think it is very well done and the speak to some very balanced 
people.  The video footage in the first few minutes is a great example 
of exactly what was found last spring in Ontario.  Pay attention to the 
wing, abdomen and head positioning of the dead bees from the over 
stimulation of their nervous system as they die.  This is very typical 
of the symptoms can  observed in affected yards.

At the end there is good commentary on the possible effects on human 
health that we have dismissed as not being a problem with neonic 
exposure in food.

Interesting to see the hives in Japan too.
