Pavan, could you please improvize on this and frame the philosophy of fart. I remember joking with my cousins after one hefty meal on a brilliant Sankranti day that when one farts "he should point his finger to the sky so that the fart gas quickly goes up instead of sideways" :) Your philosophy of fart might bring in such conceptions to reality!!!
