i guess this also means there are around 10^23 farts in the atmosphere. a quick empirical study just showed there around 10 farts to a breath.

Empirically, my buddies' farts seem to weigh in way above 0.1 breath.
So we're also breathing Caesar's last fart.
Well, once every 10 breaths on average.

But on the other 9 breaths, you get to breath quite a lot of his other farts... So... your breath is really never Caesar-fart-free.

But as a consolation, most of humanity will breath your farts on every breath, so...

Farts are low in nitrogen, but certainly do contain some. And the carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, etc., are made out of atoms some of which were in Caesar's farts.
