Simple... turn on the stove, furnace, or whatever else you got that is run off of natural gas.

I'm not a mod, but your skating on very thin ice here... UTFSE!

Oh yeah, and someone move this to Detrius.

Reference Information

Note: off the top make a compost pile and insert a tube with holes to collect the gas and then pipe out to a holding tank.........go to the dumps and see how they collect the methane from decomposition of trash......solo

Also here is an interesting article....

If you only need a small amount, there is this:

"Ammonia, oxygen, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, methane, and hydrogen chloride are conveniently generated in a microwave oven. "

I'm just curious, no sulfur, no natural gas, but you got an internet connection... just where they heck are you located at?
