Ok Allen, I'm around today, checking e-mail when taking a break from trying 
 to finish painting my house - a multi-year project.
 
CCD tests:  We can offer any type of test desired from pesticides to  rapid 
viral screening to PCR for Nosemas to complete proteomics that  reveals any 
and all pathogens in a sample.  
 
We operate on a cost recovery model - didn't get any of the big CCD  
research money - told by reviewers that we lacked experience :).  
 
So, we can't offer free services - which is what we wanted to do - for a  
Center for Disease Control for bees.  But, we can offer analysis  capability. 
 
 
As per testing for CCD itself - we've got some leads, may have an answer to 
 that one soon.
 
1) Our sonic bee health scanner - and no, its not buck Rogers or a joke-  
seems to pick it up, and
2) We are conducting testing now with a colleague, see if we may have an  
answer to cause of CCD.
 
Jerry
