The natural products of a New Jersey swamp are being blamed for the smell that’s afflicted New York City recently:
January 9, 2007 — Who cut the cheese?
New Jersey, apparently.
Across the length and breadth of Manhattan, people were asking, “What’s that smell?” after a pungent odor like natural gas or rotten eggs blanketed the borough and northern New Jersey for three hours yesterday morning.
By evening, the answer seemed to be a stinky gas emitted by a New Jersey swamp or marsh.
You start preserving wetlands, then all hell breaks loose.  First it’s trees causing pollution now this.
BTW they do cause global warming, you know.
I’m sure New Yorkers will create a new plethora of Jersey jokes after this!
