While there may be much to point towards validating
this claim, whose job is it to make them care?

Right now, EPA is taking comments on the pesticide
drift regs. It was reported to us at last
week's annual AHPA meeting that to date 37 comments
have been filed all from chemical companies and none
from beekeepers.

Enough said (I hope)
