Thanks bongk. You are quoting http://www.ento.psu.edu/MAAREC/FAQ/FAQCCD.pdf (insightful deserves a source link!) -- so far, has anyone managed to actually produce MAPS with REAL DOTS on them, aside from those silly "affected states" maps? The http://beealert.blackfoot.net/~beealert/index.php people are taking surveys -- not even asking people to volunteer zip codes by incident (I've emailed them about that) so what kind of GIS treatment is there, could there be?
The other notable aspect is the 'sudden' onset of this problem. And unlike the genetics of monoculture bees, dissemination of crops, introduction (and use!) of pesticides... if the cell network had changes to its signalling patterns, there is the possibility to fit the suddenness aspect.
My offering in the bees/cellphone intersection set,

is a theory where phones themselves -- through routine queries to go to high power and ID their location, could have been asked to step up their activity in 2006. Or some 3G rollout. Still hoping for some cell aware slashdotter to weigh in on this. And no, for the record I'm not the guy claiming there's some cell-tower based shadow mind control network out there. With all due respect -- I'm starting to lose mine. ;-)
