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

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