Thank Mother Earth for Oil, Natural Gas and Other Fossil Fuels

http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidblackmon/2013/04/22/thank-mother-earth-for-oil-natural-gas-and-other-fossil-fuels/

In a choice between Nancy Pelosi and Forbes, I'd choose Forbes

From Wiki: Natural gas is a fossil fuel formed when layers of buried plants, gases, and animals are exposed to intense heat and pressure over thousands of years. The energy that the plants originally obtained from the sun is stored in the form of chemical bonds in natural gas. Natural gas is a nonrenewable resource because it cannot be replenished on a human time frame.[2] Natural gas is a hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly includes varying amounts of other higher alkanes and sometimes a usually lesser percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and/or hydrogen sulfide.[3] Natural gas is an energy source often used for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. It is also used as fuel for vehicles and as a chemical feedstock in the manufacture of plastics and other commercially important organic chemicals.
