Fuelling the Debate
I wrote previously on the theory that oil and gas, conventionally labelled as fossil fuels, don't have their origins in plant and animal matter.
Samizdata had a post on the subject today, with the comments quickly filling up with their usual high standard of debate and information. The links posted included one to a paper for the US Geological Survey by Thomas Gold, which I've skimmed. Although my chemistry is a bit rusty, the theory seems believable. There was also an American Assoc of Petroleum Geologists magazine article.
Michael MacGuiness pointed me to www.gasresources.net, which hosts the work of J. F. Kenney, a leading modern proponent of the theory.
Perhaps Tony and Michael will have more to say.
