True story, copied directly (word for word) from an article in 'Bloomberg News Service', re-posted for our

A terrible diet and a room with no ventilation are being blamed for the death of a man who was k**led by his own gas. There was no mark on his body but an autopsy showed large amounts of methane gas in his
system. His diet had consisted primarily of beans and cabbage (and
a couple of other things).
It was just the right combination of
foods. It appeared that the man died
in his sleep from breathing the
poisonous cloud that was h*****g over his bed. Had he been outside
or had his windows been opened, it wouldn't have been fatal. But the
man was shut up in his airtight
bedroom.
According to the article, "He was a
big man with a huge capacity for
creating 'this deadly gas'. Three
of the rescuers got sick and one
was hospitalized.
In my younger days (30s/40s/50s)
I had a reputation for expelling such noxious gases - made some folk
gag and retch and one guy actually puked, but I'm not aware of ever
having k**led anyone !
