I think someone suggested that maybe Paige is the one who is pregnant.
Maybe Anne saw the pregnancy tests at Paige's place (is that where she
made the call to Greg's house?) and called Greg to tell him about it? 

Anyway, I'm leaning towards Paige being pregnant because I think Anne
is past her child-bearing years, isn't she?  Did anyone else think of
that?  

And, also, I think Greg took Meg.  Mary Robeson was last at Greg's
house and I don't think he's going to just let her go without finding
Meg first (to protect her from Mary).

I was thinking the same thing.  She is just too dumb for words.  And
she thinks she is so slick but Raffi just took a minute to know she
was hiding something.  You would think she would have realized how
important the bug was at some point after she took it, and would have
high-tailed it out of there.  But no, she lets a man in a wheel chair
grab her and force her to hand it over.

I can tell that Diedre has a tough time acting with whoever plays Carrie.
She always seems to be adjusting to Scarrie's misread lines.  As for the
character....  Marlena is being far too understanding and taking much more
sh*t than she should.  I would have sent that kid off on her own weeks ago.
She is 18 and Marlena doesn't owe her a damn thing in the way of room and
board, or emotional support.  Carrie needs to be slapped in the face with
reality.  Now she is even being dangerous to those around her by messing
with Torres!  Marlena needs to ship her out of Salem until they can recast
with a better actress.

My wife Susan was commenting yesterday on how much she hates Marlena, so
I asked her if she likes Carrie just because she's Marlena's nemesis.  
She wouldn't answer.  I guess she knows what my reaction would be and
wants to keep the peace.  :-)

>1)  How long does it take for Sam to leap?

  In the pilot, Al said that Sam bounced around in time for a week before he 
ended up in the second host of that episode.  In another episode, 
Sam leaped into someone else in the same room, presumably this was 
instantaneous.  Also, the simo-leap a the cliffhanger of last season would
seem to have been instantaneous...   
  Jason Dzembo(zo) dzembj@rpi.edu is currently working as the QL.Chronologer,
and there are a few files on the QL-Archive at ziggy.3com.com concerning what
amounts of time Sam has been _IN_ leaps, and how long has gone by at
the project.  Eventually he hopes to use this to answer just that question...


>2)  Does Al EVER leave the Project?  

Yes, Al leaves the project..... Presumably they have some kind of warning when
Sam is about to 'leap in', or possibly just the fact that a new Host has shown up in the waiting room.  At any rate, Al is usuaully around someplace, 
he often takes off for Vagas, so no he is not around all the time.  But 
presumably his 'supercar' from the pilot could get him back pretty quickly 

>3)  Can the imaging chamber be tuned so that someone BESIDES Al was there?

  Presumably this would take a lot of work.  The entire project is cenetered around the brainwave paterns of Sam and Al.  There has been no evidence that it could not be altered, but since it has not, even for the Gov't, one must assume that it would be difficult.

The Super Bowl is always the most watched show.  Occasional World Series
games make it high on the list.  Other shows are way down.

The moon walk was, I believe, way, way down in terms of total viewers, though
its share was probably high.

Now for the other big five.  What were the five most watched weddings?  I know

Has anyone out there found a low-cost source for TV Guide subscriptions?
I used to be able to get ours through a magazine-subscription agency for
a few bucks less than the advertised rates, but TV Guide seems to have
withdrawn its availability via subscription agencies, at least the ones
I know of. The rates for subscriptions via the sweepstakes-type houses
are not any better than the rates listed in the magazine itself. 

Even Bob Pelligrino, who has offered very-low-cost subscriptions on the
net  for some time, does not list TV Guide among those magazines he can
set up subscriptions for.

You can usually find special offers at low rates for new subs for just
about any magazine *somewhere*; not TV Guide, as far as I can find.

Anyone have an "in" on this? If there are no low rates available, why is
TV Guide different from every other magazine in the country?

At the time, the KL producers wanted to spice up the storyline
by tying the KL plot into the Dallas plot to remind everyone that
KL originally came from Dallas.  They thought it would be a nice
little addition.  Then when the fiasco with the whole "dream season"
came up on Dallas, the KL producers swore that was the last time they
would use any storyline having to do with any of the Dallas storylines
and no more cross-plots.  It was such an embarrassment to the KL
producers that they cut off all storyline ties to Dallas, except for
a few brief mentions here and there.  The little boy's name *is* still
Bobby and they just never bring the up the subject.  


KL is discussed on rec.arts.tv.soaps....both the nighttime version
and the daytime version.  The abbreviation for the daytime version
is KL on TNT.  There are also updates done there for both versions
summarizing the week's episodes.

I read recently that P&G is changing their logo to try to stop this

While I agree that Matt Ashford is a fine actor and was very happy to
see my favorite soap actor in my favorite nighttime TV show, I don't
think anybody could play Sam better than Scott Bakula.

These might be considered spoilers, so I'll just do the 'ole




















I'm assuming that Norma couldn't see Al.  So, does that mean that she
wasn't that crazy?  She sure seemed to have less in the marble dept.
than Tibby.  But, I guess having two episodes in a row where other
people see Al would be too much.

Sam's disgust at being an actor in a soap opera was cute.

A great reference to the "suits" and to being in every scene.

Great line:  "Al I'm in a soap opera" -- Sam
			 "We prefer to call it a daytime drama" -- Al

Next week:  Durn, another repeat.  Well, at least it's a good one!

This comment started me wondering just what it would be like if there
were multiple leapers running around, not just Sam.  

This is reminiscent of the general idea that, if time travel is invented
at some time in the future, then presumably there will be multiple time-
travelers running all over the place from various future eras.  Imagine all
the time-travelers visiting the Titanic.  Their combined weight is probably
what made it sink... But I digress.

So say you had a room full of people, all of whom have been leapt into by
various quantum leapers.  As I understand it, none of them would know that
any of the others were leapers, not would they be able to see each other's
version of "Al", since each "Al" would be specifically tuned to the brain
waves of each leaper.  But if a child walked into the room, then he or she
would see not only a room full of strangers in other people's clothes, but
also all their respective Al's!

I think I'm starting to know what Sally means by "Don't investigate this too
closely."
