Every day, I get messages from companies asking us to write about their products. Usually, I can understand why they think our readers might be interested in what they do, but sometimes I just end up scratching my head. Witness the message reproduced below that appeared in my in-box this morning:
Hi:
I'm not sure if you're the right person to send this information to, but our company has recently had a very successful commercial trial of our Ozone odor control technology at a mushroom composting operation in Ontario. We originally developed this system to combat hog barn odors, poultry barns and other agricultural operations and we felt the system performed remarkably well. Then the University of British Columbia in conjunction with the British Columbia Ministry of Agriculture did some testing with an odor panel on a scaled-down system. They concluded that we had killed the odors from a mushroom composting operation. The full-scale commercial trial in Ontario was a result of partnering with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, the Canadian Mushroom Growers Association and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture. This test proved that we had killed odors from the composting.
