All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm debating going to tvtorrents.net and torrenting the Lost avi files before they disappear. I think the user "lol" (heh) makes some of the best encodings, and you can usually store two hours worth of his/her avi's on a 700 MB CD.

Okay, mad-skipping to the end.

Re: Jack not a doctor: Did anyone notice in the last episode that the porter(?) in Jack's dad's hotel room addresses Jack as Mr., and Jack doesn't correct him?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Wolfram, I think Betsy mentioned that in the Natter thread. What if Jack isn't the kind to correct him? Not trying to be contrary because I think it is possible that he either didn't finish his residency or lost his license, or that the writers are trying to throw us off.

I need to watch the first ep again and see how Jack identified himself.

Heh, I've been on the Natter diet for a while. I'm not convinced that Jack's not a doctor, but I'm certainly intrigued.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Hey, is our rule for the topic here that Things Said In Interviews Etc. By Lost TPTB are fair game for non-spoilerhood? That's the impression I'm getting, but I want to confirm.
