NYC smells!
Strange gas like odor in NYC today, authorities say it does not appear to be a dangerous gas but who knows.

Terre Haute is French and I believe the it translates to "High Land".
Swamp land is a more like it!

I hope Jon Stewart is back with a new daily show tonight, he'll have a field day with this one. I was watching CNN and the mayor was doing Q&A in a press conference and actually said "the smell of this gas will pass". You KNOW this will be one quote that will be presented out of context time and time again.
