This report published 4/10/07 from Dr. Jamie Ellis at the University of Florida and offers some 
new insights on CCD. 

most notably this quote: 

" Even though thousands of honey bee colonies are dying, a small percentage of U.S. beekeepers 
are reporting significant colony losses. However, these beekeepers typically manage commercial 
operations with thousands of colonies. Therefore, the data represent a minority of beekeepers but 
a large number of colonies. For example, less than 2% of all Florida beekeepers as of April 2007 
reported colony losses to a disorder with symptoms matching those of CCD. Yet collectively, these 
beekeepers lost thousands of colonies."
