    That may have been true back when we had a functioning EPA.

    It's a brave new world now.

There just aren't a lot of places that would love to see a new refinery and Cushing at one time had multiple refineries. Growing up, I remember going down to one of those old refineries with my grandparents and climbing all over an abandoned locomotive there. I'm sure I had all of my shots.
    Have you been to Midland-Odessa? I drove through there once and stopped to get gas and holy moly the smell was just something I can’t describe. It wasn’t pleasant. It wasn’t horrible. But I was wasn’t a fan of it though I’m sure I would get used to it. If you have been is it anything like that? FWIW I’ve never been to Cushing but I’ve thought about driving there for the hell of it to see it.

    Wichita used to have a smell near the WSU campus that was a combination of odors from the stockyards and beef packing plant AND the Derby oil refinery, depending upon which way the wind was blowing.

    I also recall spending a night in Lubbock and waking up to eau de feed lot.

    When I’m driving on I-40 west of Amarillo I always have to brace myself for the stockyards they have over there. It generally doesn’t last too long, but boy does it hit you.

    Try driving through Hereford Texas. It's called Hereford for a reason. IIRC it's about 8 or 10 miles of feed lots and cattle.

    Is it time to retitle this thread to “Towns Whose Smells Disgust Me”? It doesn't seem to be a Canoo thread any more.

    Does Canoo exists ?

    I think it’s just turned into a “things that stink” thread. Canoo qualifies.
