I know the Christian churches of all varieties do pick up many more than their fair share of "fallen Catholics", but does this go the other way as well?

It does...at our Catholic Church (every year) at Easter we have new Catholics baptised (or if they've already been baptised in a Christian Church - they recieve all their sacraments (usually about 10 in total) and I'd say almost 70% were from Protestant Churches - we've had some Jewish converts and the others usually weren't raised with any religion.

We have something like 26 people in our RCIA program this year. A lot. I'm not sure the mix. Some will no doubt be coming out of various other churches, but some are probably unchurched as well.
