It seems kind of odd to me that two different situations are happening at the same time. Strange smells in NYC (" Mayor Michael Bloomberg said there was no indication that the air was unsafe to breathe. Department of Homeland Security spokesman Russ Knocke said there was no sign of terrorism.")
and dozens of dead birds in Austin ( “We do not feel there is a threat to the public health,” said Adolfo Valadez, the medical director for Austin and Travis County Health and Human Services.)
Nothing to see here. All is well.
