I'm guessing hydrogen sulfide. At low levels it smells like rotten eggs. Just a bit higher and it paralyzes the olfactory nerve so you smell nothing. A bit more and it kills you in a fashion similar to cyanide.

Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
