I guess Sayid figures they're either all dead anyway, or else they're better off knowing What Exactly The Button Does. He comes down to the Man of Science side of the island equation.
I was under the impression that I was your big comfy blanky.

I only caught the last two minutes (I had to watch VM) but seeing Holland Manners share a scene with Gavin was highly entertaining.
So, in light of Sam Anderson's appearence, is it too much to hope that they might get Harry Groener on the show at some point (I'll even take him in a flashback)?
I'd rather have Lilah (just for the W&H hilarity).

Art Crawl!!!
Lilah would be great.
She'll just take the Hellavator down to the Lost-Island Level and snark.

once opening the hatch had not immediately irradiated them
Hold on just a cotton pickin minute. Sayid may not be a nuclear physicist, but he has to know that radiation is not, like, a colorful death ray. It's still nicely possible come down with severe-to-fatal radiation poisoning without knowing it till it's too late. I mean, in this day and age, to do it you'd have to sneak into Three Mile Island without knowing what Three Mile Island does/did, but... that's exactly what they seem to be doing.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Clearly someone hasn't been watching enough television.

Hell, on Lost it might have sparkles and turn you into the Amazing Collossal Castaway.

Well, if Desmond was down there for three years and didn't come down with radiation sickness, it is most likely that there isn't a terribly immediate risk.
Me, I'd be wondering what killed Kelvin, because cancer/leukemia would be the longer-term consequence of higher-than-normal radiation.

You'd think that Jack would maybe have checked one of those bottles of medication Desmond had been injecting into himself to see just what kind of drug they are.
Morphine? Sugar water? Hallucenogenic horse tranquilizer? Anti-radiation sickness drug?
It might have just the teensiest bit of relevance to their continued stay in the hatch, you know?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Was Jack aware that Desmond had eben injecting himself? I don't recall if Jack ever saw him do it.
Also, did anyone else notice that in Hurley's dream, the Chicken Guy was blinking his eyes in time with the beeping?

He did see Desmond shovel a bunch of the vials into his bag before running out, didn't he? He probably would have recognized them as drug vials.
Then the question becomes, did Desmond leave any behind for examination?
