Another take on the whole cellphones are killing the bees story that is buzzing around the net, today (hey, even Dizzy posted about it). I am posting this in the interest of introducing another perspective on the issue. The author is a scientist who says "wait a minute...not so fast...weigh ALL the evidence first, all is not as it would seem..."

Hey, I can buy that...and, at the same time (like on the whole global warming issue), I can research the issues and come to my own conclusion--not one fed to me by the MSM...

Good points, DIzzy-

I had to question the whole 'Cells phones are killing the bees' stance after I read in one the posts here that - parasites, wild animals and other critters are staying away from the now dead hives.
If cell phones were the culprit, this would not explain why the scavengers are not raiding the now empty hives. Also, cell phones, and repeater towers have been around too long for this to just start happening.
This whole issue might be something genetic or chemical in nature.

And yes, that is also correct about honey bees NOT being the only polinators. There are other insects and even hummingbirds that do this as well, not to mention the wind. : )

Any respected 'Scientist' would agree every action has a side-effect, or reaction. You try to say "...Hmmmm, well my brain is better than that, I can master that concept, I got another idea..." but your just side-stepping the issue. To dismiss the data below would be moronic, just like the comments above:

The cell phone study, conducted by Landau's Jochen Kuhn, was originally presented at a German Informatics and Cybernetics conference back in 2003. It focused on the effects of cell phone radiation on the neurological mechanisms that control learning and memory. Placing handsets near hives, Kuhn observed that GSM cell phone radiation in the frequency range 900 MHz - 1800 MHz caused the ...
