"...My issue with most of the studies on the neonics is they are held in isolation as if that is all bees will come in contact with."

Really?  Because many times on this list, and many times in the literature, the point has been made that context matters.  Neonics are lethal with fungicides.  Neonics are lethal over time (lowered productivity).  Neonics are lethal because they target the insect nervous system, AND HONEYBEES ARE INSECTS.
