		<description>@Chris: What browser are you using? I have tested on IE7 (XP and Vista), Firefox (2 and 3 beta) and Safari (Vista) and don&#039;t have any issues. If you are using IE6, then I&#039;ll have to test that at home, but then I&#039;ll also ask why you (at home) and your company haven&#039;t upgraded to a better, more secure browser... ;)

In any case, it is important that you tell me what browser and especially what version so that I can try to replicate it. Thanks!

(This just turned into real software development... ick!)</description>

		<description>Ed, as for Jack seeing the Sox win in 2007 you assume that he does not try to pitch himself off a bridge again. It’s hard to say how far into the future the flash-forwards go. Hopefully he can forgive himself and move on with his life. Although if he a Pat fan he may go back to that bridge on Feb. 3rd 2008!

I did see the link to pick a gravatar and have not had a chance to check it out. I think of it as a personal item so I would prefer to handle the choice myself, so I don’t get stuck with a pink “Gunga”. Speaking of … do you realize that was 10 years ago this July? Yes, 40 is indeed the new 30! Although I hope not to have a guy in a gorilla costume show up at my desk as he did 10 years and ago on the hottest day of the year a few after a bypass surgery or what ever it was. I thought he was going to keel over. 

One other thing Sean/Ed, when I go enter my comments the comments box seems to be shifted to the left so I cannot see the first few characters I type. This happened at home and at work so I don’t think it a computer issue. I am getting around it by typing it up on word and then cutting and pasting. This way I can spell check too. It funny though, once my comment is out there I can read it, and everyone else’s comments as well. But I can see a green line that seems to indicate where the margin should be and there are characters to the left of that line. Again, not sure if it is site issue or a user issue.</description>

		<description>@Stacy - More likely Ben - simply because of the age with Walt. Although I think Walt&#039;s psychic abilities are coming into play (as in the visitation Locke had when he was in that body pit). Later in the first season, Walt came across The Hatch (before it was opened). When Michael told Walt they could stay on the island if Walt really wanted, Walt replied, very ominously, &quot;No - we have to go.&quot; So I think he foresaw some bad events coming.

@Chris - Agreed on them not sharing everything although some of that is for dramatic effect - plus who knows what they tell each other when we&#039;re not looking. As for the delay in resolving some things, we&#039;ve got to remember, they&#039;ve only been on the island for 100 days or so. Some of these eps span a day or two at the most so I think that&#039;s the reason. We may have been watching for a few years but they&#039;ve been there just a fraction. Good to know Jack will get to see the Sox 2nd World Series win for his own eyes when time finally catches up.

All right. So that cinches it. We have a plan for the hiatus. All you frequent contributors make sure to add your two cents in when I start running the series. Again, I&#039;ll begin when the hiatus kicks in later in March.

And Chris - Get yourself a Gravatar. May I suggest a Pink Gorilla and you can start calling yourself Gunga.

Better yet - If you want to send me your e-mail address of choice, I&#039;ll set ya&#039; up myself. That goes for anyone else.</description>

		<description>Hi all. I like idea of having the all mysteries listed out. I think they introduce some and you just kind of forget about them because they don’t get mentioned for so long. Like the “Smoke Monster” for instance, it hadn’t been seen or mentioned since it killed Mr. Eko (who I miss by the way) until Locke just threw it out there at Ben a couple of episodes back. 

Also, I wonder what’s going on with the “Others”. Wouldn’t they get anxious when Ben and the rest of kidnapping party never came back from the beach and radio tower respectively? If they were going to kidnap the pregnant women and bring them back they would have had to have been prepared for that, especially since they were camping out and not in their houses. I must admit that is the one frustrating thing about the show is how they long periods in between some of these things. That and the fact that a lot of characters don’t talk about their experiences enough. It just seems that if the survivors knew what each one had experienced individually (Locke and Rose being healed) they might better understand what is going on. 

Juliette arrived by sub. I remember her coming to and climbing out of the sub onto the dock. Seems as though Ben and his dad also arrived on the dock, so I would assume they also came by sub with the others workers. 

Not sure who the spy is on the boat but whoever it is seems to be helping them out. How else would the door magically open after it had been locked allowing them to get up to the communications room. 

Last thing. I watched the re-run episode from last week this Thursday and one line that stood out was when Miles was negotiating with Ben and was told how do you know I have access to that type of Money. He responded with something along the lines of don’t treat me like you I am one of these people. I know who you are and what you can do. That “what you can do” really stood out to me. Also what was strange was his desire for cash.  I think $3.2 would be pretty bulky. How would he get that $ off the island, onto the freighter and then off the freighter? Who knows! I personally don’t think Miles is getting off the island.</description>

		<description>Any chance that Walt is the one on the boat?  Matt and I have been rewatching season 1 and we have been reminded that Walt didn&#039;t really want to get off the island...remember how he set the first raft on fire?  Could he be working with Ben?

If this has been brought up before, I apologize.  I can&#039;t keep track.</description>

		<description>I love listing all the theories that are unanswered! At least then someone will have made a collective list to keep track of. 

suggestion: perhaps post 3 a week, on Thursdays when lost would have been on??</description>

		<description>&quot;5 a Day!!!&quot; Not theories - mysteries. What I want to do is feature a topic - for example:

1.   The Numbers
2.   The 4 Toed Statue
3.   The Swan
4.   The Looking Glass
5.   The Smoke Monster
6.   Jacob
Etc...

Basically make a master list of all the varied elements and then discuss what we know, what we don&#039;t and fill in the blanks with our theories. 5 a day might be a tall order (maybe 3) and I&#039;ll probably run it every other day or maybe once a week. Just something to fill in the hiatus.</description>
