Well, as you said earlier, with the Internet everything is going to survive. But more broadly speaking, I think Stevens will continue to have a small but dedicated circle of readers and Frost will continue to have a much broader audience. And why not? Actually, that's how each of them would have liked it. But neither of them is going to die out, unless a capacity for intelligent appreciation of things dies out (which, I guess, might happen in a post-Trump world).
