This is in a town of about 2000 people. Wait until it arrives at places like Madison Square Garden etc.

The Americans with Disabilities Act has outlived it's usefulness and this is an example.

I put hand lotion on earlier today so I would have to go to the "back of the bus"

I didn't post the article properly,sorry.

It is in the Boston Globe today in the City/Region section.

The bottom line is that people will be segregated into 3 sections at town meetings because of the use of scented products. It's pretty funny.

OK so there are three different sections for three different scents.
How about people who use one kind of soap, then one kind of body lotion, then one kind of under arm deoderant, then there is the different smell of toothpaste, gargle, perfume and mouth rinse. Lets really confuse them. Its really scarey what its coming to. Pretty soon, you won't be able to smell in public places at all. and if you do , everyone will know right away who it is. they will just follow thier noses.

[Mears]

I think some people would only be happy if we just stopped using anything,including soap.

Now THAT would make for an interesting town meeting.

HOw about this?
what if no one showered at all? Is the natural odor of the day OK? peee uuuuuuu hahahaha "eau de stinky"
we can bottle it . we just have to have people stand still long enough for us to squeeze the smell out of them for our bottling purposes.

It's pretty funny.

Oh YEAH! Ha Ha Ha Ha hee hee hee heee...

Ok, for some real laughs, hows about I blow an ounce of black pepper up YOUR nose?

 

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha..

"I think some people would only be happy if we just stopped using anything,including soap."

I was for many years the head librarian of the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Association (LASFS). There was one individual--whom I will not name except to say that his last name was singularly apt--who never (to my knowledge) bathed.

When he came into the room I had to leave.

The amazing thing is that he eventually started some sort of consulting company to provide services (of some sort) to Hollywood producers of SF movies...and made himself rich.

No, I don't know if he started to bathe somewhere in there.
