Crude - on the History Channel

[Jawo]

Interesting program about the history of oil, where it came from, and the extent to that we go to mine it. It appeared about a year ago on ABC in Australia details: http://www.abc.net.au/science/crude/

EDIT: Description from History Channel:

Go on a sweeping adventure into the mystery of the history of oil. Where does it come from? When will it run out? Where is it driving us? This amazing fluid that powers our lives has made a 160 million year journey to reach our gas tanks and plastic bags. Learn about Earth's extraordinary Carbon Cycle, and the role of oil in current concerns regarding the environment. The Oil Age we now take for granted began less than a century and a half ago, and it could be over in our lifetime.

Yup, pretty interesting. Kind of simplistic at times, but all in all, a good watch.
