the whole passing gas argument seems stale now.

but let an uneducated idiot make an observation here.

to say that a gas can not exceed the speed of sound is like saying that the escaping "very high pressure" gas, has to stop at the muzzle and wait it's turn in line to exit now that the bullet is gone. look if the gases were traveling mach 3 when the cork popped; then like any other object, it requires space to slow down. and yes i know that the amount of resistance regulates how far, but you will be hard pressed to make a case that it is instant. laws of motion apply even to gases.
