Is there an ANSI standard yet for the smell-o-vision numbering?
Or an RFC? (1-April or not)
Perhaps one needs to develop a smell-o-wheel in the same vein as a
color wheel? Before one dismisses it out of hand as being friviolous,
think of ester combos as a set of intersection in a grid/orthogonal
packing shape (butyric/acetic/etc acid plus
methanol/ethanol/butenol/propanol/etc). It won't cover all possible
odors, but it would at least allow one to generate a coordinate for
certain smells.

If the user
interface included smell (intentionally), that should be
handled by X as well.
