Kelvin fits with the "Man of Science" theme, though. Lord Kelvin. And I definitely heard Kelvin, not Calvin. But it's possible it was just Desmond's accent.
'Life of the Party'
Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
FWIW, the closed captioning said Kelvin.
Yeah, but close captioning has been wrong on this show before.
That's why I'm thinking it's an experiment on human behavior. Tell someone it's the "end of the world" and they'll tolerate the most outrageous bullshit.
If someone ever hooks me up to this sort of thing, kiss all your asses goodbye... because even if I devoutly believed what I'd been told it would take about 2 nights of interrupted sleep for me to decide "Screw it! If the world blows up, at least I'll be asleep when it happens."
I'm with Matt. I'd rather be exploded than spend the rest of my life pushing a button every 108 minutes. Especially without knowing what it was supposed to stop happening.

THANK YOU ! Yes! me too. boy that whole thing bugged the crap out of me.
Me, too. I'd feel a pang of guilt about potentially letting the world be destroyed, but by day 2 I'd be so bug-eyed with sleep dep. that I pretty much wouldn't care.

Yeah, I would have said that whatever he was shooting up was keeping him awake, but why would he take it with him. Of course, unless he's got a boat hidden somewhere, I have no idea where Desmond thinks he's going, either.
Hey, what happens if they push the button before the time is about to be up?
Also, is it just me, or was the eighteen different points of view rerunning the same few minutes thing crazy? Because the first time we saw those events, didn't Kate end up on the floor, in the reveal, with Desmond and the gun to Locke's head? But she was totally in the ducts this time, and ended up with all the fiteyfight stuff.
Am I completely misremembering? Because that all seems wrong and I'm willing to believe unreliable narrator at some point here.
