I'm 36 and remeber watching Carson quite a bit... and agree with your assesment of his stage precense...
Letterman *was* awesome in his early years BUT like most people he has matured. I think he *is* Carson's hier.
Others have mentioned that Conan is better... they are looking at this the wrong way.
Conan is Letterman's heir. He is heir to the instanity that was Late Night with David Letterman... Letterman, meanwhile is playing to a different audience... Johnny's audience.
