  We show that the winds identified with high-redshift low-mass galaxies may
strongly affect the formation of stars in more massive galaxies that form
later. With 3D realizations of a simple linear growth model we track gas
shocking, metal enrichment, and cooling, together with dark halo formation. We
show that outflows typically strip baryonic material out of collapsing
intermediate mass halos, suppressing star formation. More massive halos can
trap the heated gas but collapse late, leading to a broad bimodal redshift
distribution, with a larger characteristic mass associated with the lower
redshift peak. This scenario accounts for the observed bell-shaped luminosity
function of early type galaxies, explains the small number of Milky Way
satellite galaxies relative to Cold Dark Matter models predictions, and
provides a possible explanation for the lack of metal poor G-dwarfs in the
solar neighborhood and the more general lack of low-metallicity stars in
massive galaxies relative to ``closed-box'' models of chemical enrichment.
Intergalactic medium heating from outflows should produce spectral distortions
in the cosmic microwave background that will be measurable with the next
generation of experiments.
