Gas Exchange
When the Slitheen are in their skin suits they fart loudly; they call this the gas exchange. This can also be caused by over-eating. In "The Gift" (Sarah Jane Adventures) Sarah Jane and the gang destroy the food,a plant called Rakweed, which is native to Raxacoricofallapatorius, in the stomachs of the Blathereen, which produced methane gas.

Famous quotes containing the words gas and/or exchange:
“Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
I heard a Negro play.
Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light”
—Langston Hughes (19021967)
“If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominatorthe commodity form. The music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. Exchange value, not truth value, counts.”
—Herbert Marcuse (18981979)
