All,
It would be a shock if we actually had statistically meaningful numbers on this, so I'm willing to settle for well informed impressions and anecdotes, both tasteful and off-color. How many of the people who try DE shaving from carts or electrics slide back go back to them? Also, how does this number compare to those who were DE shavers and then moved on to straights and then returned?

From reading this board, my impression is that the people who move to straights (though a smaller total number) tend to stay there in higher percentages than those who move from carts/electrics to DE's. I have nothing to support this though and am interested in what others think and why.
