Jochen Kohn and his team at Landau University did one of the studies. There's a story on www.scienceagogo.com about it (as well as in many other places on the Web, some of them reliable, some of them not).
If we're lucky, this bee-cellphone connection won't be significant, and cellphones will continue to proliferate until they take over the world. Or something like that. However, cellphones or not, somebody had better figure out what's causing bee disappearances soon. And do something about it. A world in which many major food crops have failed and everyone's fighting over the limited supply of corn (to eat, and to put in the gas tank as ethanol)--sounds kind of Hobbesian to me. --Constance Warner -----Original Message----- From: Computer Guys Announcements and Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Jones Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 3:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CGUYS] The disappearance of bees...
