Subject: [BEE-L] Do they leave the hive and wander aimlessly in the landscape? 
 
The problem with the hypothesis is beekeepers have dealt with varroa infestation for decades.

What we saw in hives starting a decade ago never fit crash by high varroa infestation.

Nor now!

Researchers at the start agreed on varroa not the cause of ccd.

The problem was new (send money).

Volumes have written on varroa/virus infestation.

Common sense says beekeeping changed around a decade ago in the U.S..

When researchers can not solve the problem most will point to possible
Already  known problems or in another direction to get funding and change the focus off their research.

From Bee Culture article:
"University might take 40% or more from donated funds for overhead"

Sun is about up. Off to the bee yard.
