    The answer is 14 times.

    The question is...how often do normal and healthy people fart?

    People who do not suffer from gastrointestinal symptoms or disorders report they pass gas approximately 14 times in a 24-hour period.
    From an instructive digestive health quiz here.

    I'm sure that you all feel more enlightened knowing this!

    Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. He's just trying to get you to count your farts.

    I read the title and thought we were finally getting a definitive answer to the question "How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?"
    I guess that poor owl will have to keep licking and counting. :rofl:

    Damn I miss haring that. He on the air much lately? My on-air time hasn't seemed to be the same as his.
