The global warming silliness is finding new ways to discredit itself.

Farmers in Estonia have been presented with tax bills for their cows farts. It's to cover the cost of dealing with the Methane, a green house gas. This is a dumb idea first dreamed up in New Zealand a couple of years ago, but the farmers organized a group named Farmers Against Ridiculous Taxation (F.A.R.T.) and defeated it.

But, like all bad ideas, it's not gone away.

I guess we can all look forward to the day when WE pay a fart tax too. Roll Eyes

Before the goverment starts taxing our farts, we probably have to deal with OSHA and the EPA.
Some idiot will implement a rule of having a filter attached to our azzes to reduce the green house effect. But this one is easy to win, the day before the inspector wants to check the filter for proper functioning, we can eat onion soup and have a twelvepack.
Gross, but this will teach them. Big Grin

Here in the High Desert, only frozen at Albertson's Grocery, but having lived in that most safe Roll Eyes city of Gary Indiana and next to Illinois, i remember them well and sometimes splurge. Trouble is i can wolf down too many at a time.

Bad ideas are just like really bad farts, they start out really powerful (some can even bring you to the point of tears), but they'll eventually dissipate, & inevitably return again!

If a tree falls in a forest and lands on a politician, even if you can't hear the tree or the screams, I'll bet you'd at least hear the applause.

To create serious methane,

1. Have a beer or two. PBR is a good choice.

2. Have a few pickeled eggs.

3. Go up in an unpressurised aircraft like a P-2V Neptune.

No White Castles near where I live in the Pacific North-west. Went to one when stationed at Nas Memphis though...
