Forbes magazine ranks MJ as the 4[SUP]th[/SUP] highest paid entertainer of 1995-96. Based on estimated gross income, Michael ranks 4[SUP]th[/SUP] with earnings of $90 million. The top five are: 1. Oprah Winfrey ($171m), 2. Steven Spielberg ($150m), 3. The Beatles ($130m), 5. Rolling Stones ($77m).

Quote of the Day:
"I trembled to think of a world without stars. No guide for the sailor to trust at see, no jewels to dazzle our sense of beauty [...] But all around the globe, the air is so dirty and the lights from the cities are so bright that for some people few stars can be seen anymore. A generation of children may grow up seeing a blank sky and asking, "Did there used to be stars there?"
