Hong Kong - A primary school in China is fining pupils five yuan each time they fart in class, a news report said on Friday.

Hu Zhuang Elementary School in Beijing has begun imposing the fines as part of a crackdown on bad hygiene habits in the wake of the Sars outbreak, according to the South China Morning Post.

No one has been fined so far at the school which has also introduced rules banning pupils from dropping litter or coughing without covering their mouths.

I tried to quit farting once but I got irritable and started gaining a lot of weight so I started back up
again.

I had an ex-boyfriend that I would have loved to fine in this way. He enjoyed it too much.

I always viewed farting as just the beginning of the birth of a Democrat.

I once read that the average person emits one liter of flatulence on any given day. I wonder how they propose to end this inconvenience for all people? What if the teachers experience this difficulty?

The Imam at Ask the Imam.com have lots of rules against farting. Muslims are not permitted to have bodily functions while they are engaged in prayer, after they have said their prayers, etc.

There seem to be a lot of questions about it.

All this rule will do is produce a generation of Hong Kong youth skilled in the art of the Silent Killer.
