Note to Bhairitu: This is a double-header...not only is the headline hilarious, so is the photo...no reason not to share both with the FFL public... Cow farts collected in plastic tank for global warming study [A cow stands in her pen at the National Institute of Agricultural Technology in Castelar, near Buenos Aires. Argentine scientists are taking a novel approach to studying global warming, strapping plastic tanks to the backs of cows to collect methane] http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2007/07/09/eacow\ 109.xml

But I insist that the collection bag be color-coordinated with my shoes.

A special parliamentary committee should be convened.
