You were the one who had to start pointing out references. I couldn't help it. When I get a light bulb, I like to share. (I am really bad at picking up the significance of character names. Every time someone points out something important about a character in Harry Potter, I go, "Ohhhhh." Remus Lupin, you say?)

Penelope!
I get it!
Anyone else want to weigh in on Calvin vs. Kelvin?
I heard Kelvin.
Perhaps his partner's name was Celsius.
Religion vs. Science?
It sounded like Kelvin to me as well.
The more I think about it, the more annoyed I am.
Why draw an invisible map on the blast door? Why not just draw a map?
Okay, so if entering the code prevents the magnetic death ray from going off, why not automate it? Why involve a code if you can't automate it. Why build a magnetic death ray in the first place?
Why wasn't Charlie giving Claire any answers about what happened in the hatch and being so unconcerned with Locke and Eko possibly being dead?
What the hell are the Others up to? They pretend to be savages, but they're not. Not!Henry lies to Locke about not pushing the button. Why? Did he want magnetic death ray to go off? If so, why not just let it. Or why not take the Others in when Desmond was the only one there, kill him, smash the computer, take the key and go. If they don't want the death ray to go off, why tell Locke the button doesn't do anything?
I'm starting to agree with Corwood, but not just about the Losties, but everyone on that island and involved with that Island is fundamentally stupid. Maybe the magical magnet sucks IQ points away.

This was my question as well! And I thought that's what Desmond was going to ask, but no.

Because Charlie sucks.

One of them has a stuffed tiger?
Did they show the Others after Desmond's big bang? I'm remembering their reaction by the lack thereof - that is, they didn't seem fazed at all - but I'm not sure I'm remembering correctly.
Also, I really liked Terry O'Quinn's delivery of "They're not my friends." Nice and brutal.
For what it's worth:
That's all the philosophers I think they've referenced. Or, at least, all the obvious ones I can recall.
