Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2008 10:31:39 -0000 Since the threat of oil shortages are being used in a propaganda effort to concentrate cryonicists in one place, this article may have some slight relevance to cryonet as it supports an old theory that the Earth is constantly generating hydrocarbons. They are not decayed organic matter. This theory was once regarded as cranky, in rather the same way that theories about continental drift were regarded as the work of a lunatic when it first appeared. http://worldnetdaily.com:80/news/printer-friendly.asp?ARTICLE_ID=59991 This is supported by the fact that hydrocarbons are found on moons and planets in the solar system that are highly unlikely to have had sufficient organic matter to produce them by decomposition or fermentation, in the quantities that have been observed. -- Sincerely, John de Rivaz: http://John.deRivaz.com for websites including Cryonics Europe, Longevity Report, The Venturists, Porthtowan, Alec Harley Reeves - inventor, Arthur Bowker - potter, de Rivaz genealogy, Nomad .. and more Content-Type: text/html; [ AUTOMATICALLY SKIPPING HTML ENCODING! ] Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=30416
