Karen, sorry to learn that your DH was exposed to Agent Orange. I remember the horrors when the photos were shown of its effects. I also remember the horrendous damage inflicted by use of white phosphorus.
It annoys me so much that conclusions about carcinogens are couched in so much caution, so much hyperbole, and reservations - it's as if the manufacturer's reputation is more important than that of the people exposed.

It's because so many are ready to jump on filing a lawsuit. You have to be very careful what you publish. I'm sure that the manufacturers employ lots of lawyers who will jump on any statement that is not somewhat vague.

Oh, Karen, how awful....I know the reasons for why they do this but it totally blows my mind that other people's suffering are taken so lightly.
And, somewhere I read that RoundUp is showing up in beehives. I wish I had a reference for this....

The mother's milk is the one that I find unsettling...

Apparently it has been found in bee hives as well.

Well..2-4d is the newest herbicide they have come out with to combat the new roundup resistant superweeds...it is the same active ingredient in AO... I realize that this company employs many people. But the way that they push thru toxic products with zero independent testing under GAAS (generally accepted as safe) is beyond irresponsible. Jmo
