Care to hazard a guess?

Just time for a brief post tonight as it's late here in London and I've had a long day writing SCIENTIFIC THINGS OF IMPORTANCE in preparation for submitting my PhD upgrade report at the end of this month.

As a result, will cut to the chase and ask whether anyone cares to hazard a guess what this environmental service company's founder could have possibly been thinking about when choosing the name Agent Orange to represent his business?

From the Agent Orange website (I kid you not):

Agent Orange Enterprises Ltd
http://www.aoe.uk.com/index.html

Agent Orange deals with all aspects of Environmental Services
in Greater London and the Home Counties

Why should you use Agent Orange?

» Free quotes delivered swiftly
» Photographic reports with every job
» Competitive pricing
» Fast response times
» Unrivalled work quality
» Affiliated professionalism
» Friendly, genuine client care
» Enthusiastic, trained staff

For better or for worse, I guess Agent Orange has achieved some level of brand recognition among potential clients. I saw the company van roaming a back street on my way to work some 18 hours earlier and I'm still wondering, W.T.F.

Company founder is probably too young to remember Vietnam War and the significance of Agent Orange. To him it is just a great cleaning product.
