Tommy,
I am pretty much good to go on most of the regulations. However, the no farting thing may need some clarification. Of course, there is normal farting, sort of that blame the dog kind, but here in the States, we have what is known as "cropdusting" - the intentional stinking up of irritants. Is cropdusting permitted, as a policing measure?
