I suspect that most are grey.  I certainly am.  But then again, I've been reading Bee-L for more than a decade, and obviously Bee-L makes you grey after a few years.  In fact, that *proves* that reading Bee-L makes you grey.  There's a correlation, and that's good enough for me.

Keep it coming, keep it civil.  I've learned so much from these debates, and like many on here went for years thinking that CCD *must* be primarily a pesticide issue, until I had to concede to myself that perhaps Jim F was right after all.  

Anyway, Peter:

> Influence of Pesticide Residues on Honey Bee 
> Colony Health in France

> This 3-yr field survey  ..........

Authors?  Publication details?  This seems like a crucial part of the French jigsaw, and I'm sure that more than me would appreciate learning where to read more.

all the best
