Thanks, Scott

<What has President Bush done? There is so much more yet to be addressed. Agent Orange research, for one,
before it is too late. VN is the laboratory since we sprayed the toxic chemicals there.>

That is such a sad legacy. I fear we are only beginning to see the lingering effects of Agent Orange. Once I learned what to look for, I saw children all over the Central Highlands showing the effects of that nasty defoliant mixture. We should be working very hard to study those effects and attempt to help mitigate that problem, it is a huge problem.

Vitually nothing grows in the areas where the defoliant was sprayed, just short lived annual grasses.

Agent Orange was essentially a persistent scorched earth policy. What a horrible, irresponsible idea.
