I was reading this article on the disappearance of honey bees in the US today after reading a similar article in the local newspaper this morning. The local paper suggested that it was due to the vibrations from mobile phones and how they are making it difficult for honey bees to communicate. Scary, don't you think?

If we don't figure out what is happening with this, one-third of our foodstuffs will disappear because that is the ratio of foods that need to be pollinated by these industrious creatures in order for them to grow...

I saw a huge thing on that in the paper while I was in London 2 weeks ago! It's a huge concern over there right now. And here -- there has been a "disease" hurting bee populations all over the world and nobody has figured out what the problem is.

Makes sense -- why wouldn't microwaves and radio waves interfere with the sensitive radar of nature? We can't introduce such an alien concept to nature so quickly without SOME sort of side effect.
