Of course DV can be Lukes father.

I've heard that Ben Kenobie (or whatever) and good old DV
fought many years ago and DV was thrown into a volcano.
Well, somehow DV survived (Lucky, huh?) and the result
is his UGLY head. Well, That's my favorite ( it might
even be true!) story on how it happened (The head I mean.)
Therefore, DV could be Luke's Dad.

I thought everybody knew that Darth was a cute guy until he
was thrown into a volcano. Just in case some of you didn't, that
is indeed how he got so ugly.

p.s. I couldn't hardly understand Yoda, either. But then, I
could never understand Fozzie Bear from the muppets, and of
course, they sound exactly alike. It looked like they were
using a different puppet for Yoda than last movie. Anyone
else think that?

Quite correct. In the novelization of the movie, Ben tells Luke
that he and Darth/Anakin had a fight, a Vader fell into a molten pit.
When he climbed out, he was completely evil, the last good having vanished
(or been burned away).
That is the reason why 1) his head was so scarred and ugly in TESB,
and 2) he has to alway the breath mask. He needs the portable life support
system -- which regulates both breathing and heart rate -- in order to stay
alive.
