Oh, I spent a LOT of time there before I moved (in fact, it's why my ticket to visit Disneyland in October was only $10!)

Lewiston, Idaho. (right across the river from Clarkston, WA)

(And yes, Alex, Longview has 2 rather large pulp mills - Longview Fibre is a pulp/paper mill and Weyerhaeuser has a large pulp/paper mill there as well (in addition to the saw mill -- And Camas has spent a TON of money in the last few years to clean up their wastewater treatment to cut down on the smell!)

If this is correct, someone else will have to do a question. I was going to dream up something, but I don't know where I'm going to be tomorrow, or if I'll have electricity if I stay home, so I can't commit to being on line to respond.

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.

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?
