If I wanted to spin things the way the so called scientists do now I could show the following proof of how good oil is for you. Advanced societies all use more fossil fuels than less advanced societies. Less advanced societies have lower average life spans. Therefore using more fossil fuels is good for your health.

You are more than free to stop buying fossil fuels or anything made from them. The President is a fink. |

Fossils fuels don't even come from fossils. "The popular idea that oil, gas, and coal are made of dead dinosaurs is mistaken. Fossil fuels consist mainly of dead plants – coal from trees, and natural gas and oil from algae, a kind of water plant. ... Oil, gas, and coal deposits are really remnants of ancient muddy swamps." If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18764 | Fossil Fuel (def) a natural fuel such as coal or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms. Doesn't specify dinos. Vegs can also be fossils btw. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Lately it does not even look like that is right. Looking more and more like it comes from way deep in the earth where the super high pressure forces the Carbon atoms into unusually long chains. The President is a fink. |

odiousgambit Member since: Oct 28, 2012 Threads: 154 Posts: 5112 | The word fossil derives from a word meaning you dug something up from under the ground, though we are used to the noun meaning "the remains or impression of a prehistoric organism" I'm Still Standing, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah [it's an old guy chant for me] |

That is the most likely answer now. It also means that they are not finite. Therefore they are a renewable resource. Don't worry "just trust the science" it is never wrong. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

More important than not finite, it means we might one day be able to make oil, even if it takes years similar to tree farms. Without oil life as we know it is over so this is important. The President is a fink. |
