iron's odor

Well, just a short post on an interesting finding. I was curious why iron tends to produce strange metallic smells (it occurs to some other metals as well as blood), and it looks like a quick Googling gives me a neat explanation of this phenomenon. Go check it out.

It's funny that some common phenomena can be so easily ignored, and we never get to appreciate the science behind it.
