Yep it's true! CNN just ran a story about how scientists trying to reduce global warming caused by methane emissions found that feeding sheep fish oil reduces their farting by 20%!

What? Did you think I meant that the scientists were passing sheep gass? LOL!

Reduce global warming by how much? 0.0000000000000000000000000000142972%?

I mean, please... Spend our tax dollars on something useful.

Actually, if you multiply this by the number of sheep in the world plus if they can successfully apply this to cattle heards the gas reduction could be quite substantial.

Same question you should ask the Dept of Agriculture standards writers who calculate how much parts of bug excrement per million parts of food is acceptable.

Esoterica as it may seem, there's always a niche in the government bureaucratic machinery that would have this number.
