Anyone else smell...
The gas leak smell all over Manhattan? It's the most bizarre thing. It's on the front page of cnn.com if anyone wants to read about it. I smelled it on my way to work this AM.

Yes, and it's awful. My office let us go home if we felt uncomfortable (especially after Macys was evacuated which is right across the street from my building right over Penn Station), and since a couple people started feeling nauseous, I decided to go. Better safe than sorry, especially considering people were told the air quality was fine after 9/11 and it now turns out that it was anything but.

Here's what's being reported on CNN.com. http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/01/08/nyc.odor/index.html
I doubt it's anything dangerous, but it's still weird that a gas leak could be smelled from the Village to Jersey. There were plenty of people that did stay in the office and are walking around, so there doesn't seem to be any hysteria. Just another New York day.

Heard the Mayor speak of it on the news. Apparently it is covering parts of Manhattan and New Jersey. He mentioned the gas leak in the Village but he felt it wasn't big enough to because the smell in such a widespread area.

Gotravel--it was pretty funny. I only watched because I wanted to see what the reaction would be after all the "brouhaha". BW actually said that everything DT claimed the BW said was not true. Interesting.

Austin TX has a freaky odor too. Dozens of birds were found dead in the streets. http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/200...hile-out-west/
