We're Gonna Die. Great.

HERE:
First, 95% of all the stars we see around us today were formed during
the past 11 billion years, and about half of these were formed between
roughly 11 and 8 billion years ago in a flurry of activity. But the real
shocker is that the rate at which new stars are being produced in
galaxies today is barely 3% of the rate back 11 billion years ago, and
declining. This indicates that unless our universe finds a second wind
(which is unlikely) it will only ever manage to produce about 5% more
stars than exist at this very moment. This is, quite literally, the beginning of the end.
Of course,
I called this years ago. Duh.
Su did you think this up, or are you quoting Linus?
