Red - on Monday, I left the house and I could smell something burning. Almost like plastic. I was talking to a buddy in Arlington on my way into Irving and he said that he could smell it as well. I got into Irving and there it was. Heck, I thought maybe it was me or my car! I asked a few others that came from as far away as McKinny to Mesquite and they all said the same. As far as I know there was no industrial fires but something was responcible for a 50+ mile radius of buring plastic.

There isn't a day that goes by that Dallas isn't reporting a breathing advisory - Houston must be worse.
