Quest, "the neighborhood journal that vigorously chronicles New York's social swirl," as they put it, published their annual list of 400 this month — it's now online as well. The list really has no statement, no explication, it's merely an in/out pornolalia of society names.

The 400 list has, however, excluded Paris and Nicky Hilton for the last two years. Heh.
