This would eliminate a useful tool for clearing the guests out after dinner.

We're going to start getting our gas for free from Venezuela? Cool! Couldn't come at a better time!

Then I couldn't play the opening bars to "Star Spangled Banner" anymore.
That was one of my proudest achievements of childhood!

But wait a minute. Will decreased flatulance due to the addition of Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus plantarum to beans increase the morbidity of cardiac pathology? I mean...they may no longer be good for the heart.

Guess they never heard of Beano.
Or, if they did, they thought it was some Mexican clown...

All you have to do is soak the beans in water overnight, then toss the water and rinse. Viola, gas free beans!

They fed the beans to rats and then analyzed the rats' droppings to ensure that the beans were digested and kept their nutritional value. I pity the poor intern who had to analyze Hillary's droppings.

In case you have ever wondered:
In an article published in the December 2000 issue of Discover, "the world's leading expert on snake sounds," Bruce Young of LaFayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania, affirmed that snakes do fart. The sonoran coral snake and the western hook-nosed snake fart with an audible popping sound when disturbed.- from http://www.heptune.com/farts.html

True. What am I going to blame on the dog now?

no need to fret over beans, just get older and have gas all the time. I release at Walmart while pushing the cart around. Somehow I feel like I am contributing to the atmosphere of the place.
