When I was a kid I knew another kid who could fart at will.I bet Will didn't like that very much.

I would think if Al Gore has you named as the number one hazard to the environment, they’re bad.

The Merk Manual had a good descriptive paragrah for evaluation in it’s print version.
The paragraph didnt survive the move to the internet.

Anyone can measure them. I’ve concentrated my energy on the generation side.

It’s better to fart and waste it than to burp and taste it.

Easy ... if you ax any dog, they all smell jus’ great!

...assembled a fart detector from a sensitive hydrogen sulfide monitor... Bah, detecting the toot is child's play, only a well trained human nose can whiff the subtle overtones that lets one detect a beer fart from an egg fart, a cheese fart from a broccoli fart, a peanut fart from a chili pepper fart and the multiple "nose" farts like the Domino's fart from a Taco Bell fart. Science can only go so far, it is the noses of highly trained men that are the ultimate fart experts.
three pillars of fart quality: stench, temperature and sound...
Totally ignores controllability, the keystone of historic farting.

I can see why you might think that but what I found interesting about the article wasn’t so much the tee hee aspect but that these college kids actually invented something that might be useful. They’re the whiz kids of the future. Today it’s a class project with a certain frat boy yuck yuck element but once they grow up a little they might just invent something truly amazing.
