Hmmmm. I'm picturing a church wedding scene. They wouldn't *have* to
include the noise, just do close-ups on faces of people whose space
has just been invaded by the odor. Think: SBD (silent, but deadly).
It would make better TV anyway... unless subtle is completely lost on
the buying public today.

Fart noises could be part of their radio advertising campaign,
however.
