There is. You won't get much money for a study like this but you also don't really need a lot.

    I've already got the cat. He has indeed farted. What do you suppose that is worth?

    Excellent. That's your initial observation. Now formulate a testable hypothesis, operationalise your variables, design a controlled experiment, collect sufficient data, replicate your findings, and submit your results for peer review.

    Get back to us when you do.
