re: #87 Decatur Deb
OTOH, the East wind came from the stockyards on an island in the Allegheny. It was bad, especially the night it burned.
Yeah, that’s a different kind of hell. The closest we got was when the west wind blew strongly from Decatur, Il picking up the smell of processed soybeans. We could smell it sometimes 30 miles away in Champaign. I guess that’s why truckers on the CBs called it Stinky Town. (It’s a nice town with Millikan, a good private university).
