>>Just back from the hardware store, where I noticed 5L jugs of Ortho
yard chemicals on sale, including Weed-B-Gon, Ground-Clear, Home
Defense, and Poison Ivy Killer.  Seemed to be a mixture of 5L and 3.78
L, so guess it's new.  5L still getting second billing to "1.33 Gal",
and in one case mis-rounded to 5.033 L.
