This also shows she didn't marry the guy she was supposedly engaged to.

Maybe. But severely bleeding wounds in the back of the cranium would suggest a fracture. Blunt force fractures would tend to lead to death or vegetation at best.

I think he explained this by working for years as a spook. I thought he said that.

But you're forgetting how the island seems to have the ability to heal people at a spectacular rate. Still, I didn't see any evidence that Desmond didn't go back and bury Kevlin.

I actually remember that whole "higher power" spiel in the WWF. Having it be Doink would have been far more satisfying than the way it actually played out.

Well, at least he can't unpregger her now.

In TV until they bury the guy it's not a given that he's dead. Blows to the head, bloody as all get out, just heighten the dramatic effect. I'm not saying he is alive but it is a possibility. Part of my rationale is that particular actor gets a lot of work that is vaguely lead-ish. He's not a one off, cameo type. Moreover, if Desmond survives then they need a nemesis for him on the island...
Definitely possible since I thought the EM fields were the source of the healing guy's power when he said that maybe there was a better place for Rose.The only thing is that now that they are healed, does it matter? Think about the people that the Aussie cured (think Lost reality, not real reality), they no longer were at his house, so probably one of those once healed, healed for good type of scenarios. Just a thought on how the writers could ignore it and feel OK about ignoring it.

Which is why we thought we would see him again after Sayid's encounter. He may/may not be dead, but we'll at least see more of him in another flashback.

First thought I had when the guy fell down. I wanted to see who he was. Maybe Locke and Ecko will find his body at a later date?I meant to mention this earlier.
The other that was shot by Sawyer and Kate... you don't see his whole face... but he looks asian, and he kinda has that Marvin Candle/Wickman haircut going on.

I missed the Tailies episode earlier this fall, can somebody clear something up for me.
Have the others ever actually killed someone from the plane, or have they just kidnapped them?
I know that Ethan killed Scott(?) from the original group, just not sure if there have been any other killings.

BTW, in all of the hubbub about 2nd planes crashing, Toucan Sam and Doink the clown, they managed to (sort of) introduce another philosopher.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Desmond David Hume.

We are really supposed to believe that Desmond crashed the plane by letting the magnet come on? :X I was really looking forward to seeing what CAUSED the crash from the plane/pilot's perspective. I know the produces said that would be settled in the finale so is everyone else just buying that? There was a good post about 15 pages back about the numbers on the log but it was buried in some inane arguement about Henry being "the" leader.
Kelvin gave Desmond virtually the same story that Desmond gave Jack when they got in the hatch. Kelvin however waited 2 years before trying to bolt, that is some amazing patience. So is Kelvin dead or was it all staged for Desmond's benefit? It would be great to see Sayid's reaction to meeting Kelvin but I don't think that will ever happen.
I also thought the guy Sawyer shot looked like M Candle but if it was wouldn't they have shown us his face when the gang was standing over him?
I did not find the giant 4 toed statue in the least bit disturbing. In fact the whole scene was rather forced. Sure it's weird that the ruin of a giant statue is on the island and sure its weird that it only has four toes but what hasn't been weird on the island?
How can they let Michael/Walt go? When they really going to get back to civilization they are going to tell people they are the only survivors of the plane crash and happened to find some boat and have been sailing around for 2 months. That sounds almost as crazy as the truth. If DHARM is trying to keep this place a secret they are going to have to eliminate Michael and they will probably want to take Walt back.
After Desmond's description of the island as a sno-globe and Henry's insistence that noone will ever find the island ("not even God can see us.") my first reaction to the quarantine door falling on the beach was that the entire island is inside a larger "hatch". Perhaps they blew the lid off the real experiment and now the island will be visible to the rest of the world.

And what the hell happened to Vincent. How are they ever going to explain his disappearance?

A few pages back someone asked the question about the difference in the numbers in the log. Here are the examples of the sets, along with what I think is another error.

How can Eko be looking at the 2006 entries?? How is the original numbering supposed to be interpreted?? 4/16/02 118:29

I don't think her husband would be too thrilled that she has the picture of her and Desmond on her nightstand.

Is it just me, or did the Portugese/Russian dudes look like they were inside an airplane? The window the looked out looked like a plane window and if I recall, the room was shaped like the inside of a plane.
Also, why was the book they looked in locked? That one dude unlocked the book/binder and looked something up and then went and entered something into the little computer they had. Any chance that they are the real reason that the EMF went away? Like they were monitoring the island to make sure things didn't get too bad again and if it did, they would override the source?
Not sure how that would fit in with having to call Penny though

Re-read this entire thread and you should have no problems answering that.

My biggest problem with this show is that there is more resolved on the internet than on the actual show.
Its taken a new life on all the boards. Not only am I finding out information I would have never been privy to by just watching it, we seem to stumble upon spoiler after spoiler in the process.
I would rather be surprised, the problem is when you make obscure references to a thing like Widmore Labs (I would have never remebered it was on the pregnancy test and didn't see the baloon) and then that obscure reference becomes a focus point in the show, you need the aid of these boards for more info and then you end up getting the spoilers too.
Wah Wah Wah, I know, but its ruining it for me.

That's why you don't see me in this thread until post-season - I learned last year what you learned the hard way this year.I love the show, but I will take what the makers give me until after the season and then I'll read up on all the nifty little quirks and details exposed here.
Love the job applicant site, btw. some of thast stuff is killer.

I'm not a physicist. But, I have done significant reading/studying of astronomical stuff. Auroras:Yes, giving you the shizzee with a little shinizzle fo dizzle.Again, I hope Brewdude knows more about that and his post is accurate. I only took the Physics I needed for an Engineering degree, but I would definitely think that being at the Pole would allow you to measure the size and direction. As Hulk and Brewdude pointed out, I think that the pulse would end up caught by the EM field of the Earth and disperse at the poles. If they had any idea of the size to expect, they probably could measure the dispersion, etc. and estimate the position. Then again, they might be able to just spot the source when it happened. I am really just making an educated guess which could easily be wrong.I'll take the wink eye as giving me shizzee.
Serious question: physics guys - if there were an anomoly somewhere (like, say, in the middle of the pacific between Australia and LA), wouldn't a good place to track it be at one of the poles - are EM fields "drawn" to the poles? Would an anomoly somewhere in the pacific giving off a HUGE EM pulse (I assume that was the flash of white) register as a big bump at the poles and then potentially be traceable back to its source?
But then again, Hulk was right, if they found it, we will never see the monitoring station again. Maybe the guys will come back as part of Penny's team, but there is now nothing to monitor again.
IOW, electomagnetic charges are directed to the poles by the Earth's magnetic field.Of other interest:

The first has 8 digits before the colon, the second and third have 6 digits.These are not simple date/time stamps. Either another calendar is used or there is an identifier involved (hatch number???) that differentiates them.
I tried converting our calendar to the Julian, but that didn't add up.
I'm guessing they don't use our calendar and Desmond's conclusion was based on coincidence. Remember, Desmond hadn't seen these logs before.
Quite honestly, I think they are a red herring...because I don't think the date matters.
Jefferson the Caregiver

Probably so, but not easy waiting 4 months to clear up questions from this week's episode and in the process I feel like I've already stumbled upon some of next year's spoilers.
