   It's curious who'll stay and who'll go but my gut feeling is a larger   
   percentage will go.  We are all consumed with everything being fast,   
   new and changing.  We want our food now, we don't have enough TV   
   channels (LOL) and we get bored so easily that if the power goes out,   
   we're lost of what to do!  What's happening is all these celebs are   
   quick in and out as we get bored.  NONE have the staying power of   
   stars of yesteryear.  When our generation dies, the next generation is   
   really gonna lose out on quality.
