All is well that ends in pizza.

You don't need three sites. You need two. And you don't find out if the object is inside the triangle, you create a triangle formed by the two sites and the emitter.

I totally thought of this tonight, but got caught up in the story and completely blanked on it.

Sigh. Some former Boy Scout.

But it can be done with three.

I was also puzzled by him saying it had to be within the triangle, tho. It wouldn't matter, as by using the relative strengths of the three points, one could conceivably work out where a source is within or outside of the area.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

It was DH's first episode of lost. Not a good introduction. too anvilly. but DH did note that the guitar - was an Ovation. Often known as a 'canoe paddle' in the guitar world. hard to destroy, and in a pinch... though I found the story predictable, I enjoied it despite the anvils. must be the actor.

locke as loki -- really good idea.

ad charlie - crawling out of the cave - just to push the metaphor at little further;a christ -like action. I thik in this case Charlie took on his brother's sins

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

The writers have been playing fast and loose with the technical details of aviation, radio communication, and medicine since the first episode. Acknowledging that the way the plane came apart made it most unlikely that any one would survive is the first indication I've noticed that the "errors" may be deliberate. Intriguing....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I was kind of meh on the episode over all. I like Dom a lot, and the character, but somehow his backstory left me kind of cold. There were some nice points though. I like Michael getting to step forward and be useful. I liked the Steve and Scott scene, especially since it was a total throw away, and we didn't see them in the cave. I especially liked the look between Michael and Sun after Walt asked if they could live in the cave.

Lee speaks for me. Dom was great but Charlie's story bored me a bit, since it was pretty clear where it was going.

Sawyer still pretty, though, and he definitely has that Viggo thing working for him. But more dimples.

DIMPLES.

Next week looks interesting. I miss getting a Mejia of the previews. Speaking of which, where is Jeff? Is he around anymore?

I liked the episode. I think I just like getting hit with anvils.

t follows it up with another anvil.

I think the thing I didn't like about this ep is that almost nothing in it took me by surprise. It all felt cliched, as well as heavy handed.

Our wings are not tired.

Catholicism is rather clichéd and heavy handed. Loved beth's note of taking on the brother's sins too.

Speaking of which, where is Jeff? Is he around anymore?

I checked in on him when we were having hurricanes because he is in Florida. (Jeff and family were fine) I'll drop him another note and see if he is up to the task!

I'm just a half-assed CS major.

Heh. Betsy has Lost half her ass. hey it's early
