There's not doubt that John McCook (Eric, THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL) has one of the nicest dressing rooms in daytime. With its piano and capuccino maker, the actor's domain has become a gathering place for the other actors on the soap. But during the winter months - yes, there is a semblance of winter in L.A. - McCook and his co-stars have had to bundle up when lounging in his room. The reason for the arctic temperatures is that McCook's room is on the same system as the neighboring makeup department, which stays warmer because of sheer body heat. "In order for them to change the heat or coldness of the makeup room, they must come over and change my thermostat, making my room colder," says McCook. The actor is considering a space heater to keep him nice and toasty.
