andy1308 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I seem to remember something similar being sold in Wales a few years back - clean Welsh air from the top of Snowdon. It was a darn sight more than 30 baht though ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark lamai Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 how did you miss this one? Elephants stop, loot trucks on dark road Chachoengsao _ The chief of Khao Ang Rue Nai wants the road through the wildlife sanctuary closed at night after a herd of elephants held up and looted a string of cargo trucks. About midnight last Saturday a herd of 20 elephants blocked route No.3259 (the Ban Nong Kog-Ban Wang Nam Phon road) holding up 10 trucks, Yoo Senatham said. now we have elephant mafia... what next?

Dupont Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 How would you know if the air inside is genuine from Doi Phu Kha? Just another scam. My bottled Lat Phrao air is clearly visible and recognisable as being from this area. I had to lable mine though.

Johpa Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Would be a can of mountain tuna. I think with the right marketing, with the right graphics, and with the right tourist promotion, one could sell such a can of air with Nana Plaza or Soi Cowboy scented tuna aroma for those who wish to take home some olfactory memories.

astral Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 How would you know if the air inside is genuine from Doi Phu Kha? You will be able to taste and smell the pollution from the factory that was set up to can it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plus Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Do they have the factory on top of that mountain? Do they really collect the air there, transport it down, and then inject into empty cans? It's a whole new business - selling real smells. Nana flavoured tuna is just the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
