Odeur pt. deux

Still on the smell thing: the parc where I get my internet fix has its own smell, subtle but revolting. I hardly noticed it at first but now the slightest whiff makes me feel dead inside. It's something like rubber--of the burning variety--and it seems to be mostly localized around the playground area, probably emanating from the rubbery "safety floor" that has replaced stones or woodchips in parks around the world. It's an even trade: no more infected wounds for a mild exposure to VOCs.
