I don't' know if I trust him because he is keeping what he saw of the big loud scary thing to himself. He must feel it gives him some kind of power. Kewl avatar of the eclipse, Patti. I was going to take pictures last night, but didn't. It looked red and spooky from my house. thank you. Vlad (well, he posted it on this thread somewhere) he took the pics - I thought they'd make a nice avatar for halloween.

Seems to me that fear, or the lack thereof, is the key to the island "big bad." The pilot was disoriented and scared. What's a pilots' greatest fear after a crash? I'd say that his greatest fear would be that the crash was his fault, that he was responsible for the deaths of all those people. Feeling suvivor guilt--it's very common, why did I live and not the person sitting next to me--would cause the pilot to think I deserve to die and he did. Locke faced the "big bad" without fear and he not only survived, but thrived. Charley's gonna go through a lot of fear and physical pain--they call it "kicking the habit" because of the convulsions caused by withdrawl--when he goes into withdrawl. How will he face the "big bad?" what kind of realities might he create through hallucinations and withdrawal too...

Oh, don't worry - I haven't forgotten the pilot. Or the other dead folks. Or the complete creepiness of the "it's killed them all" message. oh yes....the message. I'd forgotten that. *grin*

Hurley could break his headphones. Oh, Anne. You're awful! But you're right. I was actually worried about Charlie's guitar. If he pisses someone off, that'll be the first thing of his they'll think to destroy to get back at him. First rule of self-preservation - don't show too much of what's important to you, or it'll be used against you later. Geez - that sounds very cynical of me.

I'm still wondering where they got that axe. Do planes carry axes? I wondered that, too. I think Sawyer is going to have an issue with Michael destroying the handcuffs, tho. Scary avatar, Nicki. Sorry you're feeling blue.

These have probably been mentioned, but.... No food left, so someone gets eaten? Although, the island seems to have food available now, but many not 40 or 50 years ago. Since "Adam" & "Eve" weren't eaten, maybe they had a suicide pact. Or, who gets sacrificed to the island next? I vote for the second one. Or maybe they were just used to see who did something risky. Like maybe venture out of the shelter of the cave/trees.

I think we probably noticed that at the same time. I just got here first. Maybe Boone is off licking his wounds after last week's confrontation. I hope things can be patched up. I see what you are all getting at - but I keep getting the vibes that Charlie is sweet on Shannon, not Claire. I just keep thinking he's going to get mixed up with Shannon, and it won't be good. When is Claire having that baby? What will it mean, to give birth on that creepy island? If it is a boy, she should name it Thurston. A girl, Lovey.

How will he face the "big bad?" I like your fear theory, Nicki. Maybe that's why Walt conjured up that polar bear. And Sun conjured up the confrontation between her husband and Michael? Hmm. I read somewhere where the storyline is a work in progress, depending on interaction between the actors, etc. Sounds like a Joss-method.

That could make for some very interesting stuff. I like Nicki's fear theory too. Like you're projecting whatever you're feeling and the island is reacting to that, maybe? Lola

Kate told Jack about the transmission soon as she got back into camp that day. Ah, I knew someone would remember. Thanks.

Shannon is Ginger. Jack is the Professor. Hurley is Gilligan. The pilot is the Skipper...only 'cause both managed to get themselves...well, "Lost." Now for the reaches. Those of you who weren't forced to repeatedly watch "Gilligan's Island" for years after school because cable wasn't around need not read on: Charlie is one of the Mosquitoes. Wait, the pilot could be Wrong Way Feldman! And, and....Jin is...um...that Japanese sailor dude who thought World War II was still on. Ok, I'm tapped. Thanks so much, Spring - I just lost 20 minutes of my life over your little Gilligan reference.

Any guesses on the meaning of the black and white stone they found with Adam and Eve? It reminds me of what people use to blackball people. You know, when you put all white balls in the bucket, and whoever pulls the one black one is out. I had that thought, too, only I took it a little further and flashed on Shirley Jackson's story, "The Lottery." But then, I also saw some of the red pill vs. blue pill symbolism there. Maybe it's the stone you choose that matters.
