What's the deal with the perfume machines?
I've now read several posts complaining about corporate perfume machines in the Bloomington Sheraton.
I have a pretty good sense of smell, but I didn't notice any odd blasts of perfume as I was walking around. How did you know they were there? Could you smell them, or did you read about it somewhere? Where are these devices located and what do they smell like?

JM and I could hardly walk thru the first floor hallway between the two towers because the smell was so strong. (There were times when it was like having my face totally buried in overly perfumed laundry detergent.) I'm usually relatively tolerant of most "corporate-image" foolishness, but if every every single one of the ghod-awful things died Minicon and Convergence weekends, I'd consider it the act of a benevolent deity...
We both complained to the front desk but got the marginalized-corporate-minion brushoff. (paraphrased: "Oh really? Well, I haven't noticed any smell... Perfume you say? Scent machines? Oh those... Nobody here notices them any more." Like that should make US happy about it?)

K. [since all the scent-sensitive people successfully managed to get magazine perfume samples sealed into the ads for them, I just don't get why Sheraton thinks more assaults with scent on the non-consenting public is a good idea]
