Commuter Complaint #2

What's that smell? Stinky Town is the only city where Dan has encountered such a range of odd & awful odors on a single outing. Today, for example, while traveling between home base and his workstation a mere 45 minutes uptown on the F/B subway line, Dan's nose involuntarily witnessed more than 23 foreign smells (2 were pleasant, 1 was unknown but not terrible, and the remaining 20 were downright putrid). Even above ground, it's amazing how one sweet smell can be so short-lived as it is conquered by the stench of death floating by - gone as quickly as it snuck up. (Sometimes, even the sweet smells can be suspect.) Underground, as any seasoned strap-hanger knows, is a whole different story: a myriad of alien scents immediately dominate both the dank, dirty platforms as well as most of the cars' interior space. To better prepare his fellow commuters, Dan recommends the diligent use of assisted breathing apparatus. To avoid looking like a freak though, use this handy map as an alternative guide.
