Does this mean that more dinosaurs died for us than the experts originally thought?

I love this story.

Don't get too excited by it. Most oil fields do not recharge, and the few that do can be explained by existing geological theories.

If this theory was true, you could find oil just about everywhere, and there wouldn't be many exploratory dry holes. However, the actual success rate, even with the improved technology for finding oil, is only about 12%.

In any event, we're clearly using oil faster than it's being created and we're forced to look in places where we've never been able to look before.
