I think there was a Beverly Hillbilliees episode that dealt with that
very proposition wherein investors approached Jed with the idea of drilling
a large shaft/tunnel through one of the mountains above L.A. to include
giant fans that would suck the smog out of the L.A. basin. Having advised
Jed they had investment commitments for all the major components save the
tunnel Jed asked, "Well, who gets the shaft?"
