i'm just going to POST THIS AS LOUD AS I CAN and crush all arguments-MONSANTO=root of all evil.

270. "big M just bought the only people doing reasearch into the cause of bee death."

No they didn't actually. Lots of people are doing research on CCD. Beeologics is a small company doing research on one part of CCD, not even the part having to do with toxics as a possible cause, but rather, the role of parasites.

"Beeologics is developing a line of RNAi-based products to specifically address the long-term well being of honey bees, including the control of parasites and how they’re involved in Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD)."

Once again, your bias beats out your actual facts.

And the rest of your screed, once again, is cut and paste assertions about Roundup and all kinds of other evils, none of which have anything to do with bees. Your big gun is that small amounts of Roundup can cause death of human cell cultures? Please. Small amounts of salt can kill human cell cultures. A small change in pH or temperature will kill human cell cultures. And how does Roundup come into contact with human cells to kill them? Roundup is a problem in the human digestive tract? No one says you should drink it. In fact it says right there on the label that it is harmful if swallowed. So do not swallow it. And don't allow animals to ingest it.

HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR INHALED.
DOMESTIC ANIMALS: This product is considered to be relatively nontoxic to dogs and
other domestic animals; however, ingestion of this product or large amounts of freshly
sprayed vegetation may result in temporary gastrointestinal irritation (vomiting, diarrhea, colic, etc.). If such symptoms are observed, provide the animal with plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration. Call a veterinarian if symptoms persist for more than 24 hours.
