Donald's uncle, Duckburg today, thinking hat

Thanks for all response on my question about Gyro's
inventions! By the 
way, 
have Carl Barks ever used the thinking hat? The one
with the three 
crows? (I 
doubt it... there's NO WAY such a thing could work!)

I just wonder: What is the name of Donald's uncle? Is
it Scrooge or is 
it 
$crooge? I've been surfing through various web pages
(D.U.C.K.hunt, 
duckburg.dk etc.) and seen both versions used. What is
correct?

And, I'm curious; do any of you have any thoughts
about what is 
happening in 
Duckburg today? According to Don Rosa, $crooge died 34
years ago, 
Donald is 
now 80yo, HD&L are now 60yo... I have a few theories;
1) Donald has married Daisy.
2) Gyro has married someone (a figure not introduced
yet?) and he has a 
daughter
3) Huey, Dewey and Louie have gone to college. They
have probably split 
up 
by now - they're not so equal anymore:
3a) Huey is in charge of taking care of the funds they
inherited from 
their 
grand-uncle Scrooge
3b) - Dewey has married (probably a girl he met in
college)
    - Dewey and his wife have a son
    - After years of dating Dewey's son married Gyro's
daughter.
    - Dewey's son and Gyro's daughter have given birth
to twins
3c) Louie is some kind of top-general in the Junior
Woodchucks 
Worldwide 
Organization (what's the English word for
"stormogul"?)
4) The money in the velvet of Scrooge's money bin is
never used. They 
lay 
there as a monument over the man who in his lifetime
managed to earn, 
with 
nothing but himself to help him, a gigantic room
filled with cash
5) Gus Goose inherited Grandma Duck's farm, but he
soon sold it
6) Some years before Scrooge died, he became friends
with Hortense and 
Matilda again

HD&L probably went to collage in 1958, when they were
18yo
All these marriages (Donald/Daisy, Gyro/someone,
Dewey/someone) 
probably 
found place somewhere between 1960 and 1965. That's
also the period 
where 
Gyro/someone and Dewey/someone probably got kids.
Scrooge died in his 
100th 
year, 1967. Somewhere 1975-1980 I guess Dewey's son
and Gyro's daughter 
started dating, some years later they married and in
1985 I guess they 
got 
their kids (which I believe was twins). I guess Louie
was honored to 
become 
("stormogul") around 1980, when he was 40yo.

Yes great theory!
hmm..but i wonder if maybe ALL of the nephews HD&L
heird theyr grand-uncle?
But this sounds good,
but you can never know for sure about this...
