I don't think hot chiles will go away, and completely agree with Susan. For all of you conspiracy theorists, mild Jalapenos were not developed because of the bland taste of the American public. The TAM Jalapeno was developed at Texas A&M with almost no heat so that salsa producers like Pace could add measured amounts of capsiacin for Mild, Medium and Hot salsas. As has been mentioned many times, heat varies from fruit to fruit, plant to plant and field to field. It's simply easier to produce a standardized product with chemistry.
