Oh yes ...

another quote ..(I'm on a roll) ...

""The suggestion that petroleum might have arisen from some transformation of squashed fish or biological detritus is surely the silliest notion to have been entertained by substantial numbers of persons over an extended period of time." Fred Hoyle, 1982."

Fred and Thomas Gold were two of the 'three amigos' of Cosmology, Astrophysics and Mathematics (post WWII).
Hermann Bondi was the other one.

Classic stuff !!

Cheers
