Neil, if you're gonna speak relatively but are exclusively comparing stars, you're going to have to be more specific.

Relatively speaking, stars are hot compared to the rest of the universe.

The surface of stars are the coolest parts anyway, even the atmosphere is way hotter.

And no mention of neutron stars or feeding black holes? If you're going to one up someone, at least do it right...
