quite regrettably this is a very very serious issue (honestly do we have any that aren't?)...
initally there were some very troublesome reports back a few months ago and then in typical american fashion... there was some wringing of hands and furrowed eyebrows and worry lined creased foreheads... and then paris hilton went to jail...
it is called colony collapse disorder and it IS still a very serious concern...
after i first heard about this issue mrs. ron and i were planning to aquire my mum-in-laws husbands abandoned hives for restoration... i fear that we may have waited too long to aquire the bees however...

sorry... sorry... sorry.... i added what i thought was a profound Einstein quote only to have it be scuttled... the quote was in error:
Albert Einstein DID NOT once say: “If the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live. No more bees, no more pollination … no more men!”
