Like a toilet?
Ever driven past a paper mill?
Not in Alabama. There's one in Maine that you used to be able to smell from miles and miles away.Doug
Doug Rou On Jefferson Davis' Birthday, Even
The my first college, that town had a paper mill, but never had a smell problem. Moved to another town, with another paper mill; on a bad day you could smell it 25 miles away, easily. (That's how far I was from it.) When the '72 flood came along, the creek that runs past it was flushed out, the water was so nice looking afterwards. Then once the plant started running again the creek turned ugly, yet the company says they don't pollute. Even today they fight the state environmental people.
The paper mills don't smell bad here, but the chicken processing plant stinks when we drive past it (it's on the other side of town).
Of course thirty years ago the whole town smelled of fish...
