Or else, it's the odour produced by a Dodge Omni, which is rather distinctive
by all accounts. It's right up there with Pinto smell (the car, not the beans,
that's a *different* word) and Vega smell. All three are on the opposite side
of the Whiff Wheel from "New Car" smell.

I understand TLG had one of these as well, and they produced Polly in grey,
brown, and rainbow-painted red (at the very least). Brawk!
Hmmm, in all seriousness (which still isn't much), wouldn't "polyolfactory"
really mean "having many organs to sense smell?" So polyolfactory omniscence
might be better termed "The Noses Knowses?"
best,
Lindsay

| (...) beans, (...) Oh man, that was terrible. But to address your question, yes, I was making fun of the way that Larry spelled "omniscient", he did it so as to include the word "scent". [see above] so omni + scent means "many smells". Pretty lame (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
