Man paves road with unwashed clam shells, neighbors are sickened by stench

True, all the razor clams I have seen now are small. I have seen razor clam shells from the past that were a foot long and almost as thick-skinned as a quahog. Those are the ones I was referring to that might be able to pop a tire.

And you’re right about the burning… I had forgotten that burning clam shells is a fantastic way to make lime. Which can then be used in concrete and for other things, too.

We have been discussing this long enough for the stench to die down. What’s the latest from Stanky Clam Estuary? Are people still honking because of the stink?
