After reading my blog yesterday about the US jumping to  number one natural gas producing country in the world, a friend remarked: "I must then be the largest individual gas producer in the US and my immediate concern is not fracking but farting."

    "The whole community benefits from a single carbohydrate that you consume." Well at least my digestive bacterial community. Your posting gave me a good laugh this morning, and the article was quite informative. No "Beano" for me, I don't want to starve my hardworking friends.

    BTW - I worked at an astronaut nutrition project at US Berkeley in the early 70's. Test subjects were confined for about 8 weeks, everything they ate and everything that came out of their bodies was documented. Including their 'natural' gas. Fortunately, I had nothing to do with the collection or processing of those metabolic byproducts.
