Well, apart from Rockafella seeing transporting oil as a money making business…. the rest of it is complete rubbish!

This fellow is obviously not aware of that 95% of all oil have algae traces in them.
What I wanna know is;where did he get the 16000 feet fossil limit from? I have never heard about this before and I am a geology enthusiast. Where does that limit come from?
