We knew this in the friggin' '60s, man! Agent Orange (aka 'dioxin') has just been remarketed as Roundup! No different from vioxx or how many drugs?

I am Amazed it took HGTV this long to grab this oppty; is there no vision in the place? With all the "reality shows" now, along with the nostalgia for the culture of the '60s, '70s, '80s (anytime
