     Maybe it was Colleen?  I remember it cause it triggered quite
a lot of discussion.  I wish I'd saved the original article.  It was
posted over the summer, I believe, and was something that had been in
one of the magazines.  Maybe SOD or SOU?  Tammy usually covers these, 
maybe it was her.  But I definitely remember that it said that Crystal
wanted a Carly/Lawrence/Bo triangle, and that either she or else TPTB said
they didn't plan to deal with the rape.  Several people posted about their
disgust over the matter.  I just can't remember who had the original.  Did
anyone save that article?  Does anyone else remember who it was?  Tammy? 
Colleen?  Was it one of you guys?  Please prove to Tim and Greg I'm
not totally delusional here!  Oh, and Greg, I could have sworn that Crystal
was responsible for the famine in Africa.  I think it was in the
Inquirer :-)

     Rose--I still have some slight shred of sanity left and am
waiting for vindication here :-)

             The article you are talking about was in SOAP
             OPERA WEEKLY.  It said that DAYS was going to
             build on the Bo/Carly/Lawrence triangle.  That
             Carly was going to start having renewed feelings
             for Lawrence.  Michael Sabatino said he wasn't
             happy about this story because he felt it would
             demean the character of Carly.  He felt that it
             was wrong for Carly to have feelings for Lawrence
             considering he raped her best friend.  Michael
             made his feelings known to the TPTB.  The article 
             then added that Crystal couldn't be happier with 
             this new turn of events.  In fact she loved it.
             [Obviously she wants to work with Michael more].
             Matt Ashford told fans in St. Louis [which included
             me] that DAYS intended to skirt the issue by
             never having J&J and Carly/Lawrence in the same
             scene.  A quote from Matt "In other words, they
             intend to just forget the rape ever happened."

             If Larry and Carly weren't made to interact with
             the Hortons, Bo, Jennifer, and Jack then putting
             them together wouldn't be so nauseating.  Larry
             and Carly would just have to answer to each other
             in their own little corner of the world.  If they
             liked what they saw in each other so be it. They 
             deserve each other.  Unfortunately, that is not 
             going to happen considering Carly manages to be
             integrated into everybody's lives.  As it is I can
             barely stomach listening to Carly talk about Larry
             in Jennifer's presence.  The citizens of Salem 
             will suddenly all suffer from instant amnesia 
             which will make them forgive and forget.
