Whoever Smelt It, Dealt It

Whoever Smelt It, Dealt ItSix men were taken to the hospital yesterday, complaining of nausea, light-headedness and shortness of breath caused by an unusual odor in the Chicago Mercantile Exchange building. The odor was in the telecommunications department on the second floor of the south tower at 30 South Wacker. One trader said that he didn't smell anything on the trading floor and trading at the Merc wasn't disrupted. Investigators took air samples and no toxic chemicals were reported.

Chicagoist always likes to revert to our developmental stages (some say we've never left) so we have to say, "whoever smelt it, dealt it."

I wonder if it's mold - has it been rainy lately? There's mold in one part of the train station that makes it stink like a mofo.

I work right across the street from the Merc -- watching all the activites from 30 stories up was sort of fun. Though, part of me was a little freaked out. I was able to watch it all - but had no idea what was going on. One of my co-workers said that perhaps a guy had had a heart attack down on the floor, that's pretty common. That was a pretty sad thought. That's what I get for working in a cold corporate environment I guess.
