I am one of those who received the 'petition' that Stephen Rice mentioned.
However, I am not one of those who positively responded.
I did respond that the sheer volume of web references 'did not make it
necessarily so' and, in fact, the petition mostly or wholly consisted of
half-truths and propaganda. A shame that our wonderful honey bees are being
used for nefarious agendas and purposes.
