Charlotte Staples Lewis from Oxford [at least according to Ben] is the bitchy redhead hanging out with Locke's group.
C.S. Lewis is [ugh, is that information really over your head?] a Christian philosopher, colleague of J.R.R. Tolkein [who was the author of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, which is a major novel series that Peter Jackson [who is a director] made into a blockbuster [which means popular] trilogy [which means three related movies introduced in order]. Lewis also authored the Chronicles of Narnia.

Daniel Faraday is the skinny tie wearing dude hanging out with Jack's group. He states he's a physicist.
Michael Faraday TOP QUOTE THE FIRST LINE OF THE LINK "was an English chemist and physicist (or natural philosopher, in the terminology of that time) who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry."

The HO thing is just another line of speculation. H is the 8th and O is the 15th letter in the alphabet, relating to 'the numbers' and of course the flight #. Jack and Hurley's game of HORSE was cut short at HO. There were apparently a number of shots where the letters HO are prominent in the background, and Hurley told dead-Chahhley that he saw him right next to the Ho-Hos. So it appears that people are researching if this is something that's been going on for some time or something new or possibly just a coincidence.

Thanks.

I was completely unaware of the HO thing.

I figured out the connection between your Faraday link and the character from the freighter. I didn't catch the name of the chick from the freighter, and as a consequence, had no idea about the similarity between her name and cs lewis.

And now I know what people mean when they talk about a "trilogy" too! Outstanding.

I just read about it, which was why I phrased the post in terms of an inquiry. ie, hoping others knew more about it than I.

I admit I have a love/hate relationship with the show. I'm a little leary of introducing 4 or more new characters when some of the older characters need to be developed and/or killed off. Has Claire served a purpose other than spitting out the baby? Does freckles serve a purpose other than to be grabbed and held at gunpoint/knifepoint?

Even though this weeks episode didn't move the plot very far forward, it is neat to see that the 815 survivors turned into the Others. Jack pulled the same trick that Smiley played on him - put the guns down, Oh yeah, you are surrounded... Some of the 815 want to stay on the island like some of the Others,(Ben and the others that are taking refuge) while others want to leave (Jack/Juliette). Just as the others drove out Dharma, the 815ers have tried to drive out the Others (albeit in a less deadly manner for the most part). Kind of a neat role reversal.

2. New character (Asian) speaks with the dead. Also, shouted "Don't say my last name!". Candle? (Dr. Marvin Candle was seen in the orientation films).

3. New character finds a polar bear in Tunisia wearing a Dharma symbol.

4. New characters pushed out of a helicopter during an electrical storm and don't know why.

5. Locke shot through the kidney (there's irony for ya).

So what's really happening?

But we hear Miles last name later in the episode. It is Straume.

I don't think that's his "real" last name.

C'mon, Miles Straume [Maelstrom] can't be made up.

Mama Hip Rockets · 02-10-2008, 06:16 PM

so, now that the strike is over, does that mean there will be more episodes of LOST this season? or is there not enough time to get more of them done?

I think some of the series, like Lost, will be trying to get a full season in.
