Google Listing with No Yahoo Description?

1.) Does anyone have a listing in Google that shows-up in the Yahoo serps, but is NOT in the Yahoo directory?

2.) If so, when that listing shows-up in the Yahoo serps, what is used for the listing's description?

The reason I'm asking is, I just had two pages from the SAME site become #1 and #2 in Google for a particular search. The #1 listing is the home page and has been at that ranking for some time. That page shows-up with its Yahoo description, but the newly listed #2 page is an internal page from the same site, and therefore doesn't have its own separate Yahoo description.

I'm wondering if maybe the Yahoo listing algo won't just drop the #2 listing altogether, since it's from the same site.

Yes and googles.

I think it's to do with yahoo's second pass over filter which they apply to googles serps.

I had one site #1 #3 #4 in google but #1 in yahoo only.
