N.Y.'s response: Meat our match

                              Queensbury, N.Y. --------
                               Some car owners are raising a stink after driving a road littered with meat in upstate New York.
                               Dozens of chunks of meat were on the road in front of a mall Thursday in Queensbury, the Post-Star of Glens Falls reported on the meat mystery in the town about 60 miles north of Albany.
                              Police believe meat fell off a truck that might have been heading from a farm or slaughterhouse to a rendering plant, but no one has come forward to claim it.
                              The state Department of Transportation cleaned the meat up, but driver James Teele and other motorists were still dealing with the aftermath later on.
                              Local car washes were busy with motorists trying to obliterate the meat smell.  As many as 35 drivers flocked to Hoffman Car Wash, which started asking them to hose off their cars in a self-sewrvice area before going through the automatic wash, manager Matt Phillips said.
