Phonelosers in the Midwest?

Dude, sorry, but I hate driving through Indiana, at least Gary. I remember stopping for the night once there on our way to N. Carolina, and the city just fucking reeks like death. Yeah, I said it. The city smells like corpses.

How many corpses have you smelt recently?? 

[MattGSX]

Trust me, I know what death smells like. It's remarkably like Gary in that just-evacuated-my bowels and the microbes have turned against me sort of way.

Is there a paper mill in Gary?

Is there a paper mill in Gary?

You have to be kidding. Gary is all about steel, man.

[silentneep]

You're right.  It's completely uncommon for cities with economies that are mill-driven to have more than just one.  How stupid of me.

I ask because a paper mill makes that kind of stink that Matt was talking about.  Steel mills make a funky smell, but nowhere near as bad as paper.  Just look at Palatka.

[MattGSX]

I'm pretty sure Gary has both. It may be a big place for steel, but the fact is that it's an almost entirely industrial city. I'm familiar with paper mill smells. Kimberly-Clark, Georgia Pacific, Menashacorp, and Appleton Paper all have production plants within an hour or two of me. There's a reason Oshkosh has the moniker Sawdust City.

I live about an hour away from St.Louis incase anyone cares.

No one does.

No one does.

Gangals!!!! You know no-one should be hyphenated.

[gangals]

I hyphenate for no one!

[frog]

I hyphenate for no one!

You get a leet for that.

Terre Haute smells like that too. I'm from the Southern-most (Southern-most is hyphenated right?) section of Indiana. Where there's nothing but fields and farms. Indianapolis is as far north as I've been in Indiana.

[MattGSX]

So does all of Indiana just smell horrible? Where is this awful smell coming from?

[Nod]

The South Western portion has pretty clean air. The only foul smells are when you drive by animal farms (Not the communist one, just raising animals.) and such. The rest is green acres and open skies. I miss the country.
