I'm pretty confident that most comments that start with "not to nitpick" would be better sent to /dev/null. Nitpicking is usually a sign that deeper, more interesting arguments aren't available, but negativity must reign supreme!

Shouldn't it be said that it is powered by vacuum energy, since that is what kicked of the Big Bang? (And, before anybody tells me I'm wrong, let me say, "I'm wrong!" Instead of telling me I'm wrong, educate me. I love learning about this stuff, and I know my knowledge is weak.)
