One of my infamous natural tendencies could actually keep my blood pressure low. I wonder if the physiological mechanism is enough to counteract all the Mexican food and BBQ that I eat.

![Let’s Kill Hitler [HD]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51hESmStH-L._SL160_.jpg)
If only your farts smelled like rotten eggs and not decayed flesh, then you might have a point!
I just wonder how someone came up with a research proposal to study mouse farts. Was it a joke submitted to a research grant committee? Was tequila involved? Did someone lose a bet?
Cory, maybe where your from people just ignore the flatulence of vermin, but in polite society we find it highly obscene. I don’t think science has been utlized enough in the field of noxious rodent emissions.
Pete,
My primary concern is whether our tax money was spent to study mouse farts. I’m sure it’s been blown–excuse me–on less noble undertakings. Otherwise, I suppose I’m like you in that it gives me a measure of reassurance. And since Mexican food undoubtedly assists in the production of the most–apparently–healthy . . . effluvia . . . I shall henceforth consider its consumption a type of therapy! Admonishments shall be refuted with the indignant report–escuse me again–RETORT: “Just roll down the window! Do you want me to DIE?”
