Uh, could I get a look at that map?

From today's Globe article about odor threatening Dorchester condo plan (http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2008/11/21/odor_threat_jeopardizes_dorchester_condo_plan/):

In one Corcoran Jennison model, Lannan, the company's odor-control specialist, suggested that the stench on the worst days could stretch across South Boston and Dorchester. He delineated the smelliest areas on a map with three circles: red, yellow, and green.

"Inside the red, it would be like a bathroom you'd go into and want to leave," he said. "Inside the yellow, it would be like a bathroom you'd go into and probably continue to do what you needed to do, but you'd want to get out of there as soon as possible. And in the green, it would be like a bathroom."

You have to love the analogy.
