Hi Steve & folks,

Hi Steve,  I think you're wrong.

As a limerick that I read in "The Economist" perhaps 40 years ago has it

A mosquito was heard to complain
"The Chemists are poisoning my Brain"
The cause of his sorrow
was para-dichloro
di-ethyl
trichloro-ethane.

I think you had 2-4-5T in mind for plants, or Tordon (Nodrot, spelled 
backwards).

Cheers, Brian
