Really? Years of driving through Longview and I don't think I ever smelled them. Are they cleaner than Camas's was or am I just unaware?

And I'm pretty sure Lewiston is right.

Lewiston is correct! I did time there as small child, and I still remember the stench. It permeates everything- clothing, hair, food.... (insert barfy smilie here). Potlatch has a big mill there, or at least they used to- don't know if it's still running. Alex is right; Spokane is just across the border from Idaho.

After a summer working a salmon cannery in Kodiak, Alaska, people living near paper mills have nothing to complain about. Of course, in Kodiak, there was nothing that didn't smell like salmon so there really wasn't anybody on the outside to be offended.

And yes, Wendybeth, the Potlatch mill is still running strong.

I'm not sure why you never smelled Longview Fibre, Alex - I'm sure you saw the steam plumes from I-5 when you drove by. I'm not sure if the prevailing winds maybe would have blown the stench more towards St. Helens (not the Mt - the town in Oregon). I would come back into the office from visiting there, and the guy in the cube next to me would complain that I smelled. He also said he could tell when I got a Fedex or something from them - because even overnight, it would still smell.

Sorry for the derail -- Again, I'm not sure when I'll be able to check back in - someone else will need to come up with a question.

Here's an odd one: every Disney fan knows about the bonuses that Disney gave his animators for coming up with gags on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

What two animators worked on the film and received no bonus?
