    Have you any linkage there trish?

    Was thinking that it probably wasn't going to have anything to do with 4 dimensional cubes myself. Too much for the average punter to actually give a poo about.

    Holy crap that was a brilliant theory ... It instantly reminded me of a Stephen King Film 'Screachers' I think it's called where an plane flies through the northern lights and ends up in the past... obvisouly there's no screachers eatin up the past in the series YET.. but it's still to do time and 'doorways or portals...

    BRILLIANT

    It was a short story called The Langoliers from the book "Four Past Midnight".

    People wake up to find half of the people on the plane have vanished and realise that they're caught in a pocket of time. Great story.

    i dont know if i fully agree with the theory, or even completely understand it, and i did have to avert my eyes from whole paragraphs when it looked like a looming spoiler (i learned one or two small things i would rather not have despite my efforts >_<), but it is very well explained and researched so fair play.

    has anyone read umberto eco's "the island of the day before"? it reminds me of it a bit

    Very interesting and amazing to think that lost brings out such a quest for knowledge in people but i think it might be a little over the top, its a nice theory but it doesnt explain the "others" or anything and also lost is primetime television it would be a tad difficult to explain all of that on the show. I would imagine its something a little more straight forward.

    But i might be completely wrong(Which i wouldnt mind because i quite like that theory and it would also really higher the intellectual level of current tv shows)

    HHHHmmmmm, I don't think its it.

    If the writers are worth their salt, it should be impossible to tell what caused the whole incident at this stage. I mean come on its the first series for christ sake! Tbh I found that theory rather boring. Sure the guy is smart in finding all those connections and ways of explaining the facts but I just don't think it fits Lost's story.
