  Okay - I have a stupid question.  I've been watching Y&R for about 4
years now, but I am still confused about that birthmark.  What does it
have to do with anything?  I know the whole story with Sheila, Lauren,
Lauren's REAL baby, Molly, etc., but how would this birthmark expose
Sheila as a baby-snatcher?
  Another question:  Does anybody out there REALLY think Lauren and Paul
will figure out what actually happened?  And if so, how many years is it
gonna take?  That's the problem with Y&R - it moves way too slow.  I've
watched DOOL a couple of times, and WOW!  Does it move!  I'm a devoted

Organization: University of California, Berkeley
NNTP-Posting-Host: eris.berkeley.edu



Okay,

For you folks who are saying that Dani is Romulus I would like to know 
why you believe this to be so. What are the clues to indicate this?
And what of the name Romulus?  Sorry, BUT SHE CAN NOT BE Romulus, 
for the name says it all: Romulus, the founder of the city, and civilization
of Rome. There has to be some reason why this name was chosen, the name
is symbolic, and the reasons behind it have to be symbolic to--symbolic
for the storyline. If there is a Romulus there has to be a Remus. This
evident since Lizard has a sketch of the famous bronze of Romulus and
Remus being suckled by the She-Wolf. The name Romulus could not be
used to indicate a female thief. The legend, and the symbolism behind
the legend would not fit, and the whole point of Romulus would be
stupid. Now, the writers in the past have used mythological names for
specific purposes, and when a character used a myhological name that
name fit the character and storyline: Stefano as the Phoenix, the legendary
bird which would live, die, and constantly be reborn; then there was
Orpheus, in mythology Orpheus' wife died and he attempted to retrieve
her from Hades. Also, with Jack we have had hints of classical knowledge,
so at least one of the writers has studied the Greco-Roman classics, and
thus I think that would not make such an error as to create a parallel
with the show and the myth only to have Romulus be female. If the
thief was to be female, then there are numerous female characters whom
the writers could chose from. NO WAY is Romulus a woman, thus NO WAY
is Romulus Dani. The twin facter--male twins--will have to come in.
For why does Lizard have the sketch of Romulus AND Remus, unless there
is a Remus somewhere?

I don't think Marcus should be paired up with Glynnis.  It seemed to me that
the writers just pulled in Glynnis after about a month's disappearance to
kiss Marcus.  Also, as I seem to recall, Glynnis has used Marcus before,
when she wanted information on Carly's whereabouts around the time of
Vic's "murder."  I think Desiree is a much better pairing.  I'm hoping that
Jack and Marcus will become good friends, and I think Jenn would prefer
Desiree's company over Gylnnis.

Sigh...wrong again...how will I survive?  :-)  I forgot about them
supposedly growing up together -- we never actually saw Bo until after
he "returned" from the Merchant Marines.  Can I be forgiven?  The main
point I was trying to make was that we now know for sure that the child 
should be about 7 or 8 -- assuming he's alive.  Also assuming that he's
a "he" based on Carly's confusion when she woke up from her dream and
saw ShawnD.  Anyway, that means that if the child is going to be a
child we've seen before, there are two possibilites:

(1) DOOL will do the reverse of RAS (Rapid Aging Syndrome) and have the
    child turn out to be Max -- who was being protected by Frankie.  
    This is a possibility since we haven't seen Max in aaaaaaaages and 
    TPTB think we (the viewing public) are a bunch of fools and will 
    believe anything including RDS (Rapid De-aging Syndrome) -- Max 
    would return in the form of a new actor.  This senario actually
    seems highly unlikely to me because Carly would not have been able
    to keep up the pretense that Max was not her son.  She can barely
    look at Isabella or Jenn -- no way could she look at her son 
    without cracking.

(2) This theory is to keep Nelson and Sally happy 'cause it will tie 
    Stefano back into things.  The child is Benji -- wasn't he supposed
    to be Stefano's grandson or something?  'Course I think this would
    also require a bit of RDS (I'd think Benji's about 10 or 11 by now)
    but...

Otherwise, the child hasn't been on the show at all.  :-)

	I too read about Frank, and once again I can't remember his
real name. Anyway, he became very ill from what the article said in
USA Today, and had kidney failure. He'll be on dialysis for the rest
of his life and he says that he is doing fine. For one reason or another
I just don't buy it, but that's my opinion. He looks real scarey and
even in last week's episode he looked even worse! I would assume
that if this keeps up that he might be written out of the show due
to his health. Guess will just have to wait and see won't we? Hope
this helps .....

I know you're speaking of a different sort of passion, but . . .  I have to 
admit I thought Danielle was believable when she was passionate with John
yesterday.  Nevertheless, I have to agree with you that her actions always 
seem very calculated.  I think we're supposed to see them that way, however.  
Even yesterday, when Danielle returned to her room and was leaning on the 
door, we saw that faint hint of a smile like she was saying "Gotcha now!"
