Regarding Neville Island, I always thought the island itself is completely fine... The winds blow all the pollution toward Avalon.

Also, anyone know if Edgar Thompson Works is also a large contributor to the regions pollution? Love driving past that place... So interesting to look at +the rotten egg smell is actually quite pleasant...

You're the last person to chide anybody for using dated information. That was your modus operandi before you got banned a year and a half ago.

If the air in Pittsburgh is polluted, it's because you speak and it blows east.

Its been a number of years, but I lived in Bellevue on Laurel Ave in the late 80's/early 90's- just above where the KFC is today not far from 65. I didn't notice the pollution, noticed it more if the wind shifted and got a whiff from the Alcosan.

The rotten egg smell does remind me of my youth. A young maintenance man at an apartment I lived in 10 years ago came in with sulfur to clear out a drain, warned me of the smell, didn't bother me in the least.

It's no secret that Ohio is the worst offender in the nation when it comes to toxic pollution.
