I should have done this sooner, but let me apologize yet again for making a 
mistake. My only defense, is that I was not a regular viewer at the time, so 
I assumed that Dani was named for her grandfather, Dan Stewart. Also, any 
soap magazine I've ever read on the subject said the same thing. So it's 
their fault...yeah, yeah. But do I have to be punished AGAIN??? Why am I 
never REWARDED for what I DO know?? Huh...Huh????? Oh well, If the ward 
punisher decides that I DO need to be punished, I will accept his decision.
But please, be merciful, McDano!

I agree with GGG! Please stay! People like you keep me on my toes. I'll be
more careful next time I ask a trivia question, just knowing you are out 
there ready to pounce on my mistakes.

What a wonderful family tradition. My mother looks down her nose at soaps.

Look in the phone book for your local chapter.

OOOOOOHHH...These are topics on which my knowledge is sorely lacking. Meet 
me in the Linen closet after lights out and we'll.....exchange information.
Or, you can email me at sheila.mcmahon.3@nd.edu with trivia questions from
that period. I would be very grateful for the input and I promise I would 
give you full credit should I publish any of your questions. I'm beginning 
to run out of trivia questions. It gets harder each week to wrack my brain 
for useless knowledge.
