Xander ,'First Date'
[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.
Penny's dad was Caleb from the O.C. (Making E and I laugh heartily at the "Newport Beach" on the back of the boat.)
I completely missed the Hume thing, and have been hearing Calvin as Kelvin all this time.
We all remember that Clancy Brown was the CIA agent who used Sayid in Iraq, right?
Why...yes. Yes I did. (No, no I didn't. The problem with not caring very much anymore is that it makes it difficult to pay attention to things the writers seem to think are important.)
Oh! THAT'S where I'd seen him before. (I can't believe I didn't recognize him.)
I remembered about Clancy Brown, because I say "Clancy Brown!" whenever he appears on my screen.
I had fun. ShortHair!Desmond is really striking, much more so than LongHair!Desmond.

And this is the one who played Kelvin, right (Desmond's first hatch-mate--the one he killed)?

I got the Hume thing, but I'm pretty sure they were saying Kelvin. Off to check imdb, I guess.
ETA
imdb has no answers. They only list Clancy Brown for the episode One of Them, and the character's name is Joe Inman.
Speaking of Penny, it just occurred to me how appropriate it is to have a very rich woman named Penelope associated with a secret island base. </Thunderbirds geek>

Damn, that's right. I'd been thinking he was on the show before, but I couldn't remember the context.
Also, I have no idea about the different survival rates between a fatal height and a non-fatal one. What if they were at 500 feet?

Snerk! And from the UK as well.

If you jump off a 50 story building, what do you figure your odds are? They were much higher than that when the plane came apart. The oxygen masks dropped. I don't know exactly what pressure differential would cause that, but thay probably had to be above 5000', certainly, and possibly 10,000' (which is the altitude that WWII crews used to put on their masks). Plus, IIRC, when the tail of the plane came off, you could see clouds below them.
There have been instances of pilots who have ejected from planes surviving water landings from several thousand feet when their chutes failed to open but they had to hit the water just right.

Thank you, I was trying to remember if we'd seen him before and wasn't sure.

And to have her remaining faithful to a guy who went on a long ocean trip (or, one might say, odyssey) and hasn't come back.
