Here’s the quote that scared me: “Bees are a necessary part of our food production. If we don't grow our own cherries and apples, can't we just buy them somewhere else? The answer is yes. But do we want to become as dependent on foreign nations for our food as we are dependent on them for fuel?”
Yikes. We're already buying Europe's Best vegetables from China, along with antifreeze-laden toothpaste.
So here’s a doomsday scenario for ya: War over oil, war over food and war over water. (Oh yeah, America, we KNOW you’re coming after our fresh water some day. We know it.)
Jeez. How grim.
And speaking of collapsing….Stupid Senators.

on the other hand: do you remember those killer bees that somehow never made it up from florida way back when?
It has been suggested that the great pet food poisoning may have contributed to the loss of bees. Apparently the company Menu Foods makes a form of Bee Food, which I persist in calling Bee Chow, that doesn't have the same ingredients but used the same machines and may have been cross-contaminated.
It never really ends.
