after experiencing my refrigerator AND my car's coffee holder with stagnant water that leaked through the poorly replaced windshield (which was required because 2 pedestrians crossed against the light and flung their bodies onto my car, so said the police officer and 9 other witnesses) ... and after experiencing a strong vanilla scent and then some sort of fresh ocean scent while at a power plant ...
todd and i believe that not only should "take-me-away-type-scents" (e.g., jasmine, patchouli, tea rose, peppermint, etc.) have their place in homes and businesses, but also other scents, aka "stink" (the stink that is unique to the cultural fabric and every-day-life of americans), should have its day.

- 7-yr old kitty litter
- poorly operated crackhouse

Venissimo cheese shop

-keep the BIG PHARMA executives making those obscene salaries, bonuses and retirement plans, all with some yummy bites of gourmet cheese!
I gotta say: some of the other posts are revolting (and don't keep the stock of pharmaceutical companies up, soaking it to the 77 million members of the baby boomer generation and their parents...).
