Dear Bob,
If you listen, as I did, to a beekeeper describe going from 2000 to 200 live
colonies, to buying a semi load of bees to replace losses, to watching an
invisible force move from one end of a holding yard to the other sucking the
bees out of the hives, you will not think of CCD as a myth. This is a real
problem causing real people to suffer terrible losses.
