Here's a French news article translated by Babelfish (I only corrected a couple of things, I thought the translation was so charming). Thinking of all those guys going to Switzerland for a fartfest reminds me... I must go read your posts on how the Vegas Sprawl went! :-)
Meanwhile, I know of a few people who could be beta testers for this new product. (me!)
Man from Normandy invents the pill which scents the farts
ALENCON (AP) - On the basis of the report that a fart is generally malodorous, Christian Poincheval, a Norman from d'Alençon (Flowering ash), has just created a pill to scent the intestinal winds with a soft scent of mint or tarragon. "It was six years ago, we were in Switzerland with buddies and after a heavy meal, we almost asphyxiated ourselves our farts so much were malodorants", explain with the smile Christian Poincheval. "The winds were not very pleasant for our neighbours at table. Something thus had to be done. The sound of the fart, one still can avoid it, but l odor, one can nothing make... " there; Then, this jovial fellow who always takes the life on the good side worked during months to invent the "pilule pet"[fart pill], who would bring perfumes much more pleasant as a rule: "the bowel will be able to sing but l odor will remain agréable". Creator of the toilet paper in comic strips, for which it had elsewhere a few years ago preceded with the Lépine contest, Christian Poincheval thus contacted several laboratories. "I have of the ideas but I am not a herbalist and even less laboratory assistant. It was necessary thus that I work with professionnels", specify it. It was finally "Floralpina" with the Arrow (Mayenne) which will accept the co-operation. "And they made good job, because the pill dissolves perfectly in the intestines to counter fermentation intestinale". This "pilule pet", who is manufactured only at with a base of essential oils - whose composition remains secret which causes gases scented with mint where with tarragon, is still in period of tests. "But tests very positives", l inventor begins again who adds that "For to be effective, it will have to be taken before and after the lunches and of the evening. Its effects will be felt with the end of a week". In a few days, the "pilule pet" of Christian Poincheval will be offered gracefully to around fifty of voluntary testers. "Pour that, we will organize a great evening of handing-over, not of price, but of pills". The "pilule pet" of Christian Poincheval and Floralpina laboratory which will offer "un fart bouquet" will be on sale as of the end of the year at the cost of 5 or 6 euros for a pack of 60 pills. "We let us like with this pill to attract a wind of sympathie", its inventor concludes.
