Thank you for providing the link to the results in CCD deadouts tested ,
James(Jim?)
I read it and it noted that "preliminary results" indicated that treating
boxes chemically or through irradiation indicated a strong reduction in the
effects of the disease.
It was then noted that the information was very "preliminary", therefore not
conclusive.
Since this report was in a release in April, I am sure that the pattern(s)
have solidified-one way or another- ie existence or nonexistence of
statistically significantly differences in the treated vs untreated groups
over the longer time period.
i am not absolutely a comber of every single email through this list, but
would anybody care to enlighten me on the current status of this study if I
have overlooked it, or if there is any new info on THIS particular test
noted.
It is harder for me to imagine a better custom made experiment that could
easily point to whether CCD is a problem with a pathogen as opposed to
chemical contamination.
(I am not a chemist-but I assume that irradiation would not have a
pronounced effect on any man-made poisons)
Thanks for your time
John Horton
