Ah. I hate it when the information sources I rely on turn out to be tosh, especially on an issue as important as this.

The Independent it should be said, is something of an alarmist paper that tends to paint the world in apocalyptic terms. Most of its columnists are unrepentant Trotskyites who yearn to take up arms against the corporate dragon. I don't read it anymore. I have enough worries in my own life.

That said, whether or not mobile phones are the cause, and whether or not Einstien did say that quote, I can attest, from a personal conversation with an apiarist, that the intensive use of pesticides has reduced the species variety of potential pollinators, which has led to the overuse of bees as polinators in a large number of crops, so the appearance of colony collapse disorder IS a worry.

It's gotten to the point where careful investigation is needed just to tell parody from reality. I think that means reality is broken.- Noclevername.
