I think you're on to something in your activity numbered 4 on your list, cataloging the flavors of burps created by various beers. We could get a bunch of us involved (sick puppies like Catspaw will be a sure bet), capture those burps in zip-lock bags and mail them to each other. Then at midnight we could open our gaseous little prezzies, sniff, and try to guess the provenance of the brew. A shared experience for auld lang syne.

It's Indian Summer out here and I think the heat's gotten to me. E.S.
