Ha, that's funny.
When I was in the military, I knew a guy who lived close to a paper mill. He said that there was a constant hamster cage smell of wood chips and a fart smell of steam. Yuck!

Crown Zellerbach had a kraft paper mill in Bogalusa, LA that used to flaver four counties on the Coast. Maybe the worst industral smell is an unsecured rendering plant. Call it death warmed over. It even drives the flies off the country side.

Yuck!Ah Yes; the olfactory memory of International Paper in Moss Point (or was it Escatawpa)! And there used to be a brown bubbly foam which floated down the Mary Walker Bayou. Daddy figured it was from the Masonite plant somewhere upriver. The foam is no longer there thanks to some oversight by the State, but the smell of the paper mill lingers (ick!) in my mind!
