Hello again,

Some of you wanted to know. Here's what I found out. I did a bunch of 
web searches the past few weeks and came up with nothing. The following 
quote is from another beekeeping friend, who recently got back to me. 
But some of you wanted to know.

"This information is being kept quiet.  We have a Vet/friend that 
brought it
to our attention, however, he is now unable to get any further updates.  He
has been told it's not his concern.  " _______"...is trying to get more
info as well, but I don't think it is going far."

I just don't know what to think of it. I guess it might be a dead end, 
or perhaps a long term temporary detour. Maybe I'll find out more at the 
annual state beekeeping meeting in a two weeks. If so, I'll let you know 
if you want.
