At least the cities no long smell like shite. Just go anywhere in LA and smell, before the rains. It was terrible. The most evil smell of rancid sweat, urine, and feces along with a smell of decay and death that just hung in the air like a pall of despair on the soul.
Stink was everywhere.Nice ozone smell now. Same in other southwestern states and cities.

Rebellion in the Land
27Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith YHVH Adonai; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.
28For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.
29Then I said unto them, What is the high place whereunto ye go? And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day.
30Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith YHVH Adonai; Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye whoredom after their abominations?
31For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even unto this day: and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith YHVH Adonai, I will not be inquired of by you.
32And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, that ye say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.
