Lilly Posted January 28, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Holy flaming cow butts! I had no idea this kind of thing could happen. One word for this farmer: "ventilation". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Mirdad Posted January 29, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 29, 2014 "So significant is the problem in fact that some scientists believe methane emissions from cows have been a contributing factor in global warming." Give me a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshadow60 Posted January 29, 2014 #10 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Never heard of such a thing as explosions from cows breaking wind in the past. Definitely need more ventilation in barns nowadays. When I was a kid barns were very aerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+susieice Posted January 30, 2014 #18 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Wasn't there a study done about 20 years ago that concluded cow flatulence was causing the hole in the ozone? Guess they never found a way to keep cows from breaking loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis914 Posted January 30, 2014 #19 Share Posted January 30, 2014 BBQ! I wonder if the methane can be harnessed as an alternative fuel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Paranoid Android Posted January 30, 2014 #20 Share Posted January 30, 2014 BBQ! I wonder if the methane can be harnessed as an alternative fuel? Indeed it can. Cow pats were the staple heat source of mediaeval peasantry. The real question is, based in modern society, can the fuel be harvested and refined to the extent that the power input to source such fuel is less than the power output of methane, thus making the process a viable alternative. My guess is no, but you never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awake2Chaos Posted January 30, 2014 #21 Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) There are so many rare steak jokes......okay, no I won't go there.
