I heard a scientist on George Norrey's Coast to Coast radio show say that he believed the earth's production of oil is a natural fermentation/distillation process from the inner layers of the planet. He didn't believe that oil came from dinosaurs or petrified materials left over from ancient history. This makes sense to me since many of the big oil finds, ie.., the Guld of Mexico never had these historical remains. And for this reason, he also believed that we have an infinite resourse of oil.
