Fossil Fueled Extinction

As I was filling up the gas tank of the Subaru the other night I caught a whiff of that odd, almost sweaty, tingly smell of gasoline. The thought that gasoline is a fossil fuel, distilled from flora nad fauna that lived long ago struck me and immediately I was left with some lingering questions:

Did dinosaurs smell like gasoline?
If so, were they highly flammable?

Maybe that's what happened to the dinosaurs...
