My uncle retired from a pulp mill after 46 years and whenever anyone complained about the smell, he would inhale and exclaim "it smells like money to me". He also was a very colorful character. He is 89 now and has Alzheimer's. Everyone at the mill had a nickname and his was Rabbit. He had five children in 4 years.
