I am a believer that gas and oil are not fossil fuels but geologic fuels.

I also support that idea. I was even skeptic as a child when our science books showed diagrams of oil pools under the earth with dinosaur bones in them. I couldn't understand how dinosaurs were the ONLY source of oil and natural gas. Unfortunately, the teachers weren't open to alternative ideas and always extinguished the questions.

They’re not. Read the “ The Deep, Hot Biosphere” by Thomas Gold. Oil and natural gas are continuously created by the Earth.

gosh, that’s a brilliant piece of counter rhetoric that is the first start in a better understanding of these abundant, awesome, clean and cheap natural resources
