I'm all for review, and wish to comment that none of the points in Dr.
Mussen's newsletter are new news.  Bayer has bee up front on them for a long
time.

In the interest of balance, I would also like to add that some of the most
successful migratory beekeepers in the U.S., who are massively exposed to
imidacloprid, feel that the pesticide is the best thing that has happened
for beekeepers in years, as it replaced more harmful pesticides--their
stated opinions.
