Some four years ago, an elderly Benedictine monk beekeeper in Oceanside, CA, told me his bees were dying off until the monastery stopped using Roundup. All this wringing of hands since then by the media over what is causing bee colony collapse seems so much cover-up for the chemical inudstry. Finally, the media is saying "perhaps" pesticides are the culprits. I have been waiting for the chance to pass on the experience of this elderly monk, and for free, to a wider public, and I thank you for the opportunity. If this wise old man could figure it out so easily, why is it taking countless studies at immense expense so long to barely approach the truth they have known all along?
