> Plenty of beekeepers suffered from CCD

I am not clear on this. I thought the term had fallen out of favor with researchers. It is obviously still popular in the press. 

Many beekeepers reported "CCD" without limiting to only colonies that fit the original definition. As I understand it, the classic symptoms are rarely encountered, while general colony collapse is exceedingly widespread. 

Can you clarify this?
