Why have no white dwarfs cooled to form black dwarfs in the galaxy?

According to astronomers and authors Jonathan Weiner and Carl Sagan, white dwarfs - which have been an accepted entities by all astronomers for decades - require an amount of time to "cool down" that well exceeds the current age of the universe - hence there hasn't been enough time for any of them to cool down yet and become "black dwarfs".

Black dwarfs by their name are the opposite of hot. A black dwarf becomes a black dwarf when all residual heat has escaped into space. They will be as cold as space itself. See related question.
