As I say I don't know for sure, but there is some debate.

Perhaps we can aid the cause to have more and fresher air on aircraft. If everyone joined in and made an effort to contribute to our quiet protest...

I find a few of things I would disagree with such as keeping your mouth shut. Breathing through your mouth stops the odor. It doesn't reduce it, it just doesn't it allow the contaminated air to pass over your orfactory sensory glands in your nose. Just like a cold, most of what you taste is gone, because we really smell most of our food. With the nose clogged we can't smell the food we chew, therefore by breathing through the mouth we can't smell it.

Another thing is trying to hold it while attempting to go use the rest room. When standing and the others are sitting, the release hole is at nose height, as you are squeezing throught the close seat arrangement of the plane. Their nose's are at the strongest point of contact. (No diluting of fresh air there!) Then there is the usual line of other passengers trying to use the room ahead of you. So it boils down to, a whole row of double side passenger gassed or just the one next to you. The numbers say stay seated.

Then there was a suggestion of using some form of collection. I thing collection of it for use in the engines would give the air lines free fuel, who knows maybe they would start serving beans to the passengers to actually give the fuel economy a boost.

Remember it was Romney who said he didn't know why plane windows didn't open during a fire in an aircraft.

Mitt Romney wants to know why airplane windows do not open
By Alexandra Petri

“When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she’s safe and sound.”

One would guess that your comment is typical left-wing selective memory.

Typical Right-wing response.
Not really Read the link I posted.

Typical. It started off as a nice little discussion about farting in aircraft and it had to get political.

Why not? I've run for school board (and lost, thankfully) and I've farted on airplanes. It makes sense to me.

I knew I could count on UHH'rs to turn a rant on farting political.

The problem with flatulance is that it's negative and the nose is positive. Part of nature. It's also lighter than air being a gas, and the location of it's origin doesn't help much either.

I feel sorry for the cows. They're getting blamed for screwing up the atmosphere with their dairyair and have no way to defend themselves. There was talk about putting filters on them but that idea silently died.
Cowsmoopolitan might be a good magazine for pro-cow supporters.

Don't smoke in the bathtub if you like to make bubbles.

guess after a flight of at least 12 hours Sarge must be getting off a methane resperatory cycle and back to good old o2. My favorite before flight meal is 2 hardboiled eggs in a bowle of Chilly chased by a beer.
