The quantities of oil, NG in the world as we know is from vegetation, not dino's, as some may think...

What is mind boggling is the quantity. How many tons of vegetation did it take to creat a gallon of oil, or even NG... How many centuries, millennium to create? Certainly not a biblical event, chemistry, physics, which do have limits.. Finite limits...

Are we working of synthetics on large scales? Here in CA we aren't even taxing the drillers, they get a free ride to deplete the resource!

Explosion feared as gas leaks from North Sea rig

LONDON -- Experts who worked on the Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico have been called in to halt the flow of natural gas from a rig in the North Sea.

All 238 workers were evacuated from French oil group Total's Elgin platform, which is located about 150 miles off the coast of Aberdeen, Scotland, after the leak was detected on Sunday. An exclusion zone has also been established around the site.

Total has said it may take six months to stem the flow of gas, according to Reuters.
