Why does Gary, Indiana smell so horrible?

what’s the industry? Port-a-pottys?

Welcome to Gary

Steel mills….

Is that close to Fort Wayne? I have been there and it stinks and the sky is always grey.

Hey, now, watch it! You are talking about my birthplace and the birthplace of Michael Jackson who lived about 4 blocks away from me. (I don’t think the smell is related to that fact! No, that can’t be it.) It is the steel mills that gives it the yucky smell. I no longer live there but catch a whiff whenever I drive through there.
