There was an interesting article from the BBC posted here yesterday or the day before about how some of the scientists working on this think that Titan is a sea of oil. If so, wouldn't that be interesting?

If so, wouldn't that be interesting? Even if not -- even if it's just a sea of LNG -- I think it's time to stop referring to earth's hydrocarbons as "fossil fuels".
Unless, that is, we're prepared to assert that the various "methane planets" were once teeming with life, and in truly staggering amounts.
