Re: Your stew…
The problem with a catastrphe as you describe is that it doesnt account for the
vast deposits of oil and gas found to date. I subscribe to the idea that these
deposits were formed over a long period of geologic time, and not suddenly. but
thats just a thought. The problem with sudden disasters (meteor impacts and the
like) is with material balance. Long term deposition at the bottom of seabeds,
in coral beds, etc is more appealing. No facts here, just a thought.
