Damn, forgot that one!
Darkness, although I visited Galaxy quite frequently (as you were updating the site pretty much daily), I can sort of understand where you're coming from.? Had I invested months of my time, energy and resources into bringing news of a highly anticipated film, only to find out it's total crap, I'd probably have been pissed too.? I don't know how I'd react, feeling as though all my efforts were in vain.? I hope you understand that we're all hugely appreciative for the great news and content you brought us on a regular basis.
Yes, I loved doing it. People's comments under each news item gave me a lot of motivation to post news. It wasn't uncommon for each news item to have 100 comments. I think the most I ever had was 700 when the teaser trailer came out. You were known as papercrouton, I think? You forgot to mention that you created topics in your forum before-hand, explaining how to download the movie, simply because you didn't want people to pay Fox to see it.  Don't remind me. I cringe at the way I acted that day.

More stupid questions: -George Dubya Bush. What`s with the "Dubya"? That's how people from the Southern US say "W" with their drawl. -"Agent Orange" in Vietnam war. What/who was it/he? Not only an awesome surf-punk band, but a powerful herbicide that causes genetic defects in humans and animals to this day. -Where do babies come? Hell.

Why isn't 'Phonetic' spelt phonetically?
Why is 'Dyslexic' so hard to spell?
What's another word for Thesaurus?
Where does the rest of the world go when my eyes are closed?
Why are Aliens called Aliens and Predators called Predators, when Aliens are predetory and Predators are alien?
Who's idea was it to put an 's' in 'sibilant', and talking of which, why isn't 'onomatopoeic' actually onomatopoeic?

Oh...  I had also been posting under that name over at Planet AVP at the time (as well as jord2 on the IMDb). I never quite made it to the Galaxy forums...visited, but never posted.

A liquid. It was sprayed all over South Viet Nam as an aerosolised solution mixed with either diesel or kerosene for the most part. Nasty stuff.
Although - it's a dioxin. And it was trioxins that were used to destroy cannabis plantations by the US military in the late 1960's. They had to stop using it because it kept on raising the dead. At least, that's what Uncle Dan O'Bannon told me!

So, why did they spray it?

If memory serves me correctly, they wanted to get rid of all the vegetation to expose military targets so aerial attacks would be easier.
