Love Canal was big news when I was in high school, so I do think about it from time to time. I seem to remember hearing that they changed the town name because the reputation lingered ... quick google reveals that people who moved into the lovely hamlet of "Black Creek Village" probably got a damn shock when someone let them in on where they'd just bought homes.
