Great. The universe recycles. A dead star coughs up debris, the debris becomes a planet, then gets swallowed whole. Efficient. Meanwhile my street has had the same pothole for two winters and nobody returns calls. A newborn world dies in its infancy — my landlord calls that “normal wear and tear.” At least something out there finishes what it starts.
