A stellar close encounter - and perhaps pun of the year...?

[pluto (Hugh)]

This is an interesting article about a pair of stars that made a close encounter to our system 70,000 years ago.

Interesting but that's not why I'm posting it. I'm posting it as it contains one of the best puns I've seen in a while.
The pun in question appears when they're discussing the effect that the passing stellar bodies may have had on the objects of the Oort cloud and is titled:

Grand Theft Oort-o?

Hi Hugh,

I also received an email this morning from a colleague about this.

One of the most amazing things I have read in a while!

Indeed fantastic story. Wonder how many comets and debris was stirred up and flung inwards to the sun. Or, did it act as a vacuum cleaner and sweep up debris.

Hey Hugh, (pun intended even if its not intensely funny)

I like your thread, and the pun deserves to be on the table for the judges' consideration at their convenience.

I would assume the star system "thieved" some of the Oort cloud and propelled some to a hot death. While some were to spend the rest of their days traveling the great ellipse.

Cheers
