re: #105 FFL (GOP Delenda Est)

Could smell a paper mill in Canada when there was an east wind when I lived in northern New York state.* I recall that driving through Lackawanna, NY and the steel mills there in the early 70s there were some particular smells. Passing feed lot/pig farms while on various highways.

I’d say the worst was driving north in DelMarVa and passing downwind of some of the Tysons plants. Overpowering smell of rancid chicken fat.

* - Apparently that same wind was also carrying fluorides being exhausted by the Reynolds Metals aluminum smelting operation that lay in the same direction from us. The local dairy farmers won a suit against them about it eventually.

Chicken? Chicken’s nothing.

Pig farms OTOH. That’s the stench of “Iowa money” as a poet once put it. Miles upwind and 10’s of miles down wind…
