I’m confused about (1) climate change and (2) and the increasing number of tribute bands. I knew cow flatulence supposedly contributes to climate change, but catch a whiff of this.  British environmental scientist Paul Eggleston’s work appears to be one source for Answers.com and 11 - not 10 – “11 Extremely Important Facts About Farts.” Here’s one: Termite flatulence contributes to climate change, accounting for 20% of the atmosphere’s methane. 80’s movie-metal band, “Spinal Tap,” should be pleased that termite toots go all the way to 11. I always thought Al Gore’s growing girth was caused by depression weight gain after Tipper dumped him. However, if Mr. Gore has gotten big because he has, “a bubble,” I hope he doesn’t let it go. Flatulence contributes to climate change! I’m E. Curtis Johnson. Since the science is settled on climate change, I can only offer input on names for tribute bands. If you’re doing an 80’s hair-metal tribute, name your band, “Breaking Wind.” If you’re into 80’s punk, your band should be called, “Flatulence.”
