As I have surmised in previous past posts, the real science behind the Bayer debate may mean 
nothing as public scorn towards Bayer,Monsanto and other big Agribusiness builds online and in the 
print media. 

Recall the Alar scare in the 1980's had nothing to do with real science. http://www.heartland.org/Article.cfm?artId=20647

Could the widespread use of neonics unravel as various political and enviro-groups take on the 
beleaguered honeybee and go after Bayer? 

Might there be a massive PR campaign now underway by Bayer to respond to attacks from all sides? 
Like all of a sudden Bayer is posting here? 

Hmm 

More distractions while many beekeepers continue to stress their bees and self contaminate their 
brood comb while waiting for the Final Solution that neonics will be delisted.
