I think I will be watching my fish a little bit more closely now. I think we all have another reason to blame for bubbles in out tanks now.

Captain,

The link didn't work for me for some reason but I guess it is the gas we have to look out for?

I love how news reports like that always try to be serious and PC. I can just imagine the guy walking around the newsroom asking his co-workers another word for fart.

Hehe. I don't want to think about what that would smell like. Anyone who has ever ripped one off in the bathtub or hot tub knows what a good fart can really smell like. Imagine this. An adult minke whale can weigh up to 10 tons (20,000 pounds). To make math simple I will calculate that to be the equivelant of 100 200lbd humans. We know what seafood smells like fresh, so we can probably compare it to a man (or woman) with the beer farts. Imagine 100 men/women with the beer farts in a confined area! In my opinion, it would take a h3ll of a lot of grant money to make me persue that research much farther. It would be like trying to do research in a fraternity house the morning after a major drunken frat party!
