during lunch, i visited my local Target and purchased an Arm & Hammer foaming rug deodorizer, Citrus Scent. I don't smell gas anymore...then again, i don't smell 'new car' anymore either...come to think of it, all i can think of right now is...Fruit Loops...strange...

when i get home, i'll try renting a carpet cleaner/steamer and see how that works...

Thanks
