Three words for you: Time travel.

The problem with time travel explaining things is that time travel is not consistent with anything on the island. It explains the rocket, but does not explain how they can communicate with the present on a whim. Actually, I'm struggling to come up with any scientific theories that could actually explain both. I'm thinking the concept of time on the island is not really going to have a logical scientific explanation, it's going to be a view of time that has hand picked principles from different theories that may or may not be true and they just mashed it all together for entertainment purposes.

Or, I suppose, you could go with this theory: Time isn't actually delayed, the timer just got screwed up in the electromagnetic field that surrounds the island. Simple logical explanation that stays within reality.

Carlton Cuse has said in many interviews that Desmond was actually time-traveling when he visited Penny in Season Three. The episode was titled "Catch-22".

There will most certainly be a time-travel aspect to the show. In last night's episode, Jack asked about the Red Sox winning the World Series. In reality, not only did the Red Sox win the WS in 2004 (just after they were "Lost") but also in 2007.

So which WS was Lapidus referring to?

Additionally, Charlotte Lewis was shocked when speaking with Locke's group, stating "So you've been here all this time?". I don't think she'd be that surprised if it had only been 100 days.

Just watched last week's episode.

I love the new direction the show has taken (and it really needed one, too). I'm completely hooked again.

Yeah, this season is going to be great, too bad its only 8 episodes. It should come back on in June or something, though.

Sayid doing the dirty work for Ben, holy shit.

I want to know whose casket was in last years season finale.

I still think its Walt.

They are supposed to add 5 more episodes this spring, now that the strike is over.
