Old pirates, yes they rob I, sold I to the merchant ship. Minutes after they took us, from the bottomless pit.
It's got pirates, slaves, redemption, and fate.
As for slavery -- they posited it went out of Mozambique, and was therefore not part of the standard American slave trade. I don't know anything about the style of ship, but that is more important than the dates of slavery's end in this neck of the world. Plus -- the slaves were for mining, and that's TOTALLY roomy for a Middle Passage hold.
It was an apparent team of softball players.
Any chance they made it to the island?!
Oh, and apparently the Redemption Theme from The Shawshank redemption was playing at some point?
It was actually the Redemption Song by Bob Marley (which earned Sawyer some points from Michael). I'm not familiar with that song, but the lyrics include a line about "pirates coming to steal you away" or something like that (nice forshadowing of what happens to Walt).
No, I'm told the incidental music was also there. Yes, Someone also id'd the Redemption Song, this was apparently different.
And I could have sworn it was cheerleaders, I guess it was too quick.
Oh gee, my download finished. I guess I can rewatch.
Not that I advocate downloading, even if you are in an area where reception fuzzes out, even on cable.
Black smoke=plane fuel
I thought black smoke=no pope.

An easter egg laden site at [link] has just popped up. Eventually, it ties into [link] where you can sign up for an ABC mailing list and view a message board.
Found some pretty cool things. I'll Inviso-text but still be vague.
[-Messages from survivors other than the cast.
-Seat numbers of some of the characters.
-A script page describing the monster!
-Supposedly there's a season 2 teaser vid but I haven't found it yet.]
There are easter eggs to be found within the
seat number
thing, too. Including
a copy of Russeau's map
Still looking for the
vid
though
Ok, can we talk about this in here, or is it spoily (reg or light)? Because there's spoilers or foilers there.
What was the left over scene shown on the morning show? Can't someone describe it?

Someone transcribed it over at the fuselage.
It's Claire and Charlie talking about Danielle, the Others, and the baby.
And Danielle sucking an egg, IIRC.
