Quotation of the Day for May 14, 2016



"Stink is a situation that TV and radio cannot successfully portray, olfactory being one of the senses not yet conquered by the airwaves or Internet. And until The Times-Picayune can successfully produce a scratch-'n'-sniff version of the daily newspaper -- and this technology still seems to be at least three or four years down the road -- we can only fail in our efforts to accurately capture the foulness of some of these street corners."

- Chris Rose, from his memoir of post-Katrina New Orleans, 1 Dead in Attic.
