Professor Dutton had a theory that the problem with the universe was the stars. They were too greedy, and lusted after everything, until they imploded and became black holes. If we could distribute all that energy a bit more judiciously, so that it didn’t bunch up so egregiously that the stars began consuming everything around them, then we wouldn’t have to worry about the heat death of the universe. According to his calculations, it was also the fault of the stars that the universe was forever expanding.
“And thus, I present my plan to destroy every star in the galaxy.”
