    Did you know the main characters' names came from oil/gas companies?

    Because gas and oil comes from fossil fuel, which usually is made from the remains of prehistoric animals.

    Examples include:

    Ethal Phillips=Phillips Patroleum

    Roy Hess= Hess Corperation

    BP Richfield= BP and Richfieldgas stations

    and last, but not least the main family, the Sinclairs of course, comes from Sinclair Oil, which is most famous for it's green dinosaur mascot, Earl is named after the company's owner, Earl Holding, and also if you notice Earl's shirt is the Sinclair clan's tartan.

    Did not know that! I'm surprised because now it's so obvious.
