[Ads-l] Urban legend? Or fact?

[Dave Hause]

AUGGHH!  Until you asked, it hadn't occurred to me.  Now, the answer has 
suddenly become, "I think maybe it is, sometimes, but I can't be sure of the 
circumstances."  But I know it doesn't sound dysphonious.  Inconclusive 
self-analysis!

Agent Orange - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agent_Orange
It was given its name from the color of the orange-striped barrels in which
it was shipped and was, by far, the most widely-used of the so-called
"rainbow herbicides."

And is _striped_ disyllabic for anyone else but me?
