That's scary, my Uncle has been plagued by cancers, agent orange is the culprit there.

Thanks Sully. I hope he doesn't succumb to it. This is the first I've seen published about the issue.

Agent orange has been used as a brush killer in the United States along highways and other areas. I had a friend who use to work on a state highway department and he told me about it. This was like 35 or 40 years ago when he told me.

Thanks Jarasan. Hopefully they'll listen to you. Diseases acquired in tropical climates are something else.
