My understanding is that Faraday instructed the Others to bury the bomb in 1954 when they time-traveled back. Dharma didn't come to the Island until the 1970's-1980's; therefore, how would the Dharma people even know there was a bomb buried on the Island? They would have no reason to build The Swan hatch to discharge build up of anything from the bomb, because they wouldn't know the bomb was there. I believe that the electromagnetic anomaly behind the cement walls has more to do with special properties of the island.... not an H-bomb.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-73283849159964520722009-02-06T21:37:00.000-06:002009-02-06T21:37:00.000-06:00I know this may sound somewhat random, but is anyo...I know this may sound somewhat random, but is anyone else wondering what Kate is feeding Aaron?

Since that moment I have watched all four seasons in their entirety in a matter of 1 week (roughly 80 or so hours of LOST, haha). Now I want to go back and read all your old posts. Just curious if it was ever mentioned that all the numbers add up to 108, or each number side by side (4+8+1+5+1+6+etc) add up to 36 x3 = 108 or that 324 (number of passengers on flight 815 divided by 3 equals 108? Also, curious how the Henso family plays into the schems. They were producers of the Dharma Initiative's Orientation films and were also mentioned as the providers of the Ledger from the Black Rock at the Auction. Also, Hathaway's photo was on the desk of Brother ___ (the lead monk in th emonastery where Des was)..Think maybe she convinced him to be in town and lead him to see Des awaking in the street in order to get him to invite Des to the monastery...where he would eventually meet Penny? Just some thoughts....now I'll go back and try to read all the posts since season 1, hahah<BR/><BR/>-Jesse/DCYoYohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16951745081431333231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-64256813341678815812009-02-03T23:21:00.000-06:002009-02-03T23:21:00.000-06:00What do you think of the idea that Charlotte is Wi...What do you think of the idea that Charlotte is Widmore's daughter?

(you don’t have to post it.)<BR/>I have to say, I love your writing, I appreciate your non-spoiler write-ups, and I look forward to your posts (I’ve given up on other websites).<BR/>The reason I write is to suggest that ‘you have answered one of your own questions’.<BR/><BR/>Question: In ‘Season 5 Prep’, you asked, “How did Montand lose his arm?” (Danielle’s friend)<BR/><BR/>Answer: In ‘Season 1’, you wrote, “In the video, the doctor guy appears to have both of his arms. In the videos we have seen to date, one of his arms was clearly a prosthetic. Therefore, most people assume that this video was filmed before "the incident", and all of the others were filmed afterward, meaning that the doctor most likely lost his arm in said incident. Some people even think that "the incident" occurs right after the cameras stop rolling and that Dr. Candle loses his arm because he was holding one of the bunnies and something went wrong. Once again, this is just a theory, but I think it's probably right.”<BR/><BR/>(Perhaps you’ve addressed this already)<BR/>Is Danielle connected to the doctor?<BR/>Your thoughts?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your skill !! <BR/>GregAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-39852067388727203552009-02-02T19:36:00.000-06:002009-02-02T19:36:00.000-06:00How did you know to take a picture of that tower ?...How did you know to take a picture of that tower ?

Secondly, the f...Fist of all, another great recap. Secondly, the fact you used Ugly Kid Joe cements you as the greatest TV reviewer ever. Thirdly, after my first viewing of this episode, I thought the ep wasn't that great. A subsequent viewing proved it to be better than I first thought. What stuck with me though on the second viewing, and irked me so much the first time around, was how horrendous the actress is that played Ellie. Open your mouth when you speak! And her line readings were absolutely awful. First major acting gaffe in the history of the series. <BR/><BR/>*I AM NOW REFERENCING THE PART E SUGGESTED YOU SKIP IF YOU DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT WAS SAID IN THE ENHANCED EPISODE!!* <BR/><BR/>Now, I hadn't seen the enhanced version of "The Lie" so I had no idea about "Eloise Hawking," and didn't even contemplate she was Daniel's mom (I thought Charlotte's mom instead). The Dan's mom stuff makes sense. However, I am now vehemently rooting against this because that may mean we have to see more of this 18-yr old actress play Ellie. Listen, I grew up in entertainment and have been and seen MANY actors/actresses, so I don't take criticism lightly, and I am sorry for my harsh words, but this was worse than Nikki and Paolo as it completely distracted from my enjoyment of the episode. I hope the next time we see Ms. Eloise Hawking, she has gray hair.MikeNJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08925371003891777802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981436.post-3028110727509532482009-02-02T15:43:00.000-06:002009-02-02T15:43:00.000-06:00Not sure if anyone's said this yet, but I think El...Not sure if anyone's said this yet, but I think Eloise Hawking is Daniel's mom AND Charlotte's mom. Not sure if Widmore is daddy to either one of them. But when Daniel professed his love for Charlotte before being taken to the big ol' bomb, he never said it was a romantic thing. I think he knows she's his sister, so we can put any thoughts of creepy Luke n' Leia kiss out of our minds. The kicker is that Charlotte WAS born on the island, but Daniel wasn't born until after. I need to go back and watch this epi again to be sure, but what do you think? <BR/><BR/>Once again, e, great post!

Richard told Locke he would have to die to save the island. My theory is that if Locke dies off island, then his death would be set in stone at that point, therefore following Faradays concept, Locke wouldn't be able to die until that point in time, hence the tramendous fall he survived off island, and the multiple gun shot wounds that he has sustained on the island. Thus making him pretty much immortal on the island and a pretty good leader if you can't die. Just trying to put it all together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
