I think that it was the U. S. Rubber company making Keds sneakers that
colored the river.

Uniroyal was in Naugatuck, and that was where they farmed the naugas.
I grew up about 10mi from there. Nasty-smelling town, and the
Naugatuck River was very colorful at times (depending, I suppose, on
the colors of the naugas whose hides they were processing).

45 years ago we watched a 'Saturday Night Live' skit with John Belushi
on how they
raised, slaughtered, skinned, and tanned Naugahyde. Very funny.
The ranch was probably in Naugatuck, Connecticut.

I mean Holy Bat Guano. It's Polyurethane or some other plastic. This is
what's wrong with marketing. (I was actually kind of hoping that they were
skinning Vegans, not because I dislike Vegans, it's the romantic in me, I
guess).
