Bees and Cell Phones — Not So Much

The Guardian has an interesting followup on the whole ‘mobile phones are killing all the bees’ meme. Basically, the researcher from the original report claims ‘we never said any of that’. The first clue should have been that the research was not done on cellphones and towers but cordless phones used in the home where there is (or should be) a decidedly smaller bee population than in the wild.

Shocked. Shocked I am that the press would sensationalize something to make a profit.
