It hasn't.


This is so weird really. At an event recently I bumped into a friend
ecologist and we ended up talking about bees. I had recently heard the
incredible fact about how many years we would be able to have food
crop if the bees disappeared. The answer is 6 years ... Frightening
stuff.

Anyhow, I've just now received this link from him by an amazing
coincidence.
