if Ethan was Rousseau's son (and they never made that clear, did they)
That was merely a theory floated about. I have my doubts about that one.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

I think that once you successfully login, it sets a cookie, so you don't have to log in again, unless you switch computers.
See this is the source of my puzzlement. In the two weeks since I got the new powerbook, I can guarantee to you that I had yet to visit the Chicago Tribune's website. Until last night.

Like I need a hole in my head
I lurve that Sawyer was reading Wrinkle in Time and I'm going to scurry off to reread my copy in case there's anything relevant. It was a little mathy. Maybe they're going to tesseract themselves off the island.
Hee! That was my first thought too! "The episode is about numbers...WiT was mathy...TESSERACT OMG!"

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Huh. I wonder if it works on other sites requiring a password? Maybe Apple is now shipping Powerbooks with some sort of double secret password avoidance algorithms installed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Aha! That totally explains Independence Day.

My new PowerBook 1.1 is so fabulously perfect (once we got past that icky memory slot issue with PB 1.0) that it would not surprise me at all.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
...if Ethan was mentally ill (not to start that argument again)...
Not wanting to start the argument again neither but since I missed it, I'll add my 2c and then duck for cover: I'd call Ethan mentally ill the way any sociopath would be considered mentally ill. Whether it stems from the weird mojo of the island, or just from being alone for so long, or it's how he always was, is anybodies guess.
I first thought he was "Alex", Rousseau's "child" but then discounted it for two reasons: 1) b/c he looked too old; and 2) b/c we don't know if Alex is male or female but I'm guessing it will turn out to be female.
Hell, it might turn out that Claire is Rousseau's child. They made a reference to a problem with her mother but left it all deliberately vague as to the nature of the problem. In my warped mind, it's conceivable that the problem stems from her disappearing when she was a child.

Our wings are not tired.
Claire being Rousseau's child would be delicious.
We don't know that French Chick's team went crazy, just that she thought they were ill. She could have killed them while she was delusional.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I'm happier if it's Rousseau's crazy making her think everyone else was crazy. 'Cause that's just upsetting.
And maybe explains why she liked Hurley. Sayid was just too rational for her.
Alternately, do you suppose Sawyer's got the Island Ick? He wasn't looking too healthy in the last ep. Always fun to let the least stable one with the hoard go over the edge.

I loved that she had a gun on him until he had the big freakout over everyone thinking he was crazy, and then it was all "Mon frere!"
