Damon's answer ("yes") doesn't specify that Des traveled physically into the past, and the DVD extras I mentioned on my blog seem to cast doubt on that possibility. Plus, how do you explain the difference in his appearance if Des physically traveled from the Island to his past?Bigmouthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885083460724621786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-83874367829905349512007-10-20T12:26:00.000-07:002007-10-20T12:26:00.000-07:00Thanks Big!

Lindelof said in his "Pearl's of Wisdom" section in the magazine (which I am writing a post about right now actually) that he did physically travel in time. If he did, so far it means that he returned (or was returned -- by Mrs.H.?) to the proper time where he should have landed after traveling thru it. Unlike Bunny15's adventure. Or, maybe like in the movie Contact, it was only a couple of seconds of travel in real-time for Dez. Heheh, obviously his clothes did not make the trip back tho. :o)<BR/><BR/>Which opens up all kinds of additional questions that we don't need though, like, was Mrs.H. able to snatch him from the ether when Dez turned the failsafe key and take him for a little time trip like Mr.Scrooge got from the ghosts of Christmas? And then plopped him back down again just at the right time? Or would/could the failsafe-shutdown-wormhole be more accurate or stable than the DI wormholes in their experiments? It doesn't seem likely, but...Oy!<BR/><BR/>Yes, I would visit Isaac as long as he didn't cop out on me like he did on Rose! :-)Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-13184495301727366352007-10-20T11:43:00.000-07:002007-10-20T11:43:00.000-07:00Bingo and bravo, my fellow Whovian -- very, very w...Bingo and bravo, my fellow Whovian -- very, very well explained!

If TPTB just give us a mention of the DI using blackholes or wormholes to their advantage without much explanation, that's OK with me. I would more like to know about the things that have been put out into the story all along, that were presented as significant and still haven't been justified yet. Such as, almost all the questions that Memphish has put forth on her blog! :-D Things like the quarantine and vaccines, Walt's messages, etc. The science/SciFi I can accept on face value, to make things simpler, but all these other oddities I hope will not be forgotten by TPTB by the end of the show.Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-13120893950647499512007-10-17T10:43:00.000-07:002007-10-17T10:43:00.000-07:00Capcom, I'm very sorry to hear of your accident an...Capcom, <BR/><BR/>I'm very sorry to hear of your accident and injury.

Though I'm a little ticked . . . I've been fiddling with my own story for some months (yes, it's about an island; no, it's not inspired by LOST), and what you're describing here comes way too close to what I'm trying to write about.

Well, my little Nun-mobile Taurus (I bought it used from a "Cardinal Hayes Home for Children" Sister) was still able to hobble home, so I took it there and called my insurance co first. Then I grabbed the book and went to the ER in my parents' car. :-)<BR/><BR/>I like your idea about the sub being transported in that (or some) way. I have leaned towards that too, since Ethan and Richard made that mention of the rough trip (and also the LG station). I can't think of any other reason that they would need to drug people to keep the trip a secret. Who has got the directional instincts to figure out which way that they are going underwater in a sub? It's not like being taken in a car on a drive to some place.<BR/><BR/>I also like what you say about random wormholes springing up, wouldn't that be interesting! It could also explain why some wishes are fulfilled and some not. If it just happens to swing your way when you are thinking about a black horse, your dead dad, or whatever, poof! OK, we heard it here first from Memphish. :o)Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-81147718422740233162007-10-13T05:59:00.000-07:002007-10-13T05:59:00.000-07:00You were in a wreck and went home to get a book be...You were in a wreck and went home to get a book before going to the ER? Now that's forethought Capcom.<BR/><BR/>Seriously, take care of that back.<BR/><BR/>I like the idea as far as my feeble ability to understand time travel goes. I would guess given the Island's inherent ability to produce Casismir-type effects that wormholes could spring up anywhere on the Island thus producing the magic box effect Ben describes to Locke. I'm still pretty convinced that the "real" way to get to the Island involves this sort of travel rather than that little sub. As you say, I hope we'll see soon.memphishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135806668363907263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-31113691605100481272007-10-12T10:05:00.000-07:002007-10-12T10:05:00.000-07:00Thanks PGT.

Well, I'm doing OK despite back injuries, a totalled car, and the fact that I'm 100% the victim of the accident but I will be the only one who's left in serious debt after the dust has settled. :-( I guess that God thought I needed a "Trust Me Completely" reminder. :-)<BR/><BR/>It was funny when I was in the ER reading and I almost wanted to shout "Eurkea!" when I began to grasp the concept! My problem with understanding how the island is used, is in terms of thinking of the Casimir qualties of the island needing to somehow be the same as the "two plates" thing in a lab, but that the island is just a bunch of rock. Albeit magnetic rock or whatever. I think I need to sing the MST3K song for that:<BR/><BR/>"If you wonder how they eat and sleep, and other science facts,<BR/>Repeat to yourself 'It's just a show, I should really just relax.'"<BR/><BR/>That would be extremely interesting if someone else on the island besides Dez went for a time trip CF. From your typing fingers to TPTBs ears! :-)Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653782358893480076.post-16932102877124678172007-10-12T07:45:00.000-07:002007-10-12T07:45:00.000-07:00If this were to come into play in an explanation.....If this were to come into play in an explanation..it would be through one of the main characters.

Please keep us informed.<BR/>Love the visual of Candlewax/Hollowax losing his arm during a tale of two bunnies. That may be the incident they speak of in the orientation film. <BR/><BR/>I have not made it to chapter 7, actually, I'm still on 1 - such as it may be. I like your theory, and I remember from one of TLE videos that there were all sorts of big machines on the island when they were prepping it. The island itself has some sort of magnetic properties needed for the Casimir effect, so being a lay person, I just assume they were able to harness it somehow. Keep this line of thinking going!!!pgtbeauregardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04881831890006754075noreply@blogger.com
