Mercedes Parent Takes Stake in Tesla Motors

Some months ago I read where a scientist theorized that crude oil was NOT the residue of dead dinosaurs but rather a byproduct of geological processes. I suppose the global warming/climate change/flavor-of-the-month alarmists quickly ganged up and pummeled him to, if not death, then silence. This might explain why, 30 or 40 years after hearing the first warnings that "the oil will run out" it still hasn't.

Anyway, Tesla once mocked the old ways of the automakers, claiming Silicon Valley could do it better... now, not so much, eh?

One book that posits the abiotic theory of crude oil formation is entitled Black Gold Stranglehold, written by Jerome Corsi and Craig Smith, available via Amazon. I have come to believe this alternate concept of crude petroleum existence.

Can one really believe that so many trillions of tons of vegetable matter were deposited in such geographically select areas on the planet surface over time? Doubtful. In fact, the Soviets were primary among the initiators of the abiotic theory back in the early 1950's. The volume is worth a read. Then read The Bottomless Well to understand why all vehicular propulsion is funneling toward electric.
