Or Michael never makes it back to civilization.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
If your character is called Kevin in fiction, they're always a loser. Also usually applies in real life.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I always doubted that Michael really got back to civilization, but he had to have to get hired on by Penny's father's people, right? But now he's got that whole cover story, being part of the very public Oceanic Six would undoubtedly mess up whatever it is he's doing now.

What is even happening?
Unless the baby counts as six. Which, probably not.
I think he does.
The 6 are Jack, Kate, Aaron, Hurley, Sun, and Sayid, based on the episodes we've seen.
Sun's baby doesn't count because it was still inside Sun when they were (apparently) rescued.
Oh, I'm not sure whether Amy meant Aaron or Sun's baby. I meant Aaron, which is why I said 'he' (Sun's baby is a girl).
So yes to: The 6 are Jack, Kate, Aaron, Hurley, Sun, and Sayid, based on the episodes we've seen.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
So, Michael doesn't count?
I don't think the "Oceanic 6" includes everyone who, at some point in the future, is off the island.
I assumed it was 6 people who were rescued together and came back to civilization together in a huge, massively publicized fanfare. Which is why people recognized Jack, Kate, Hurley, et al., wherever they went.
Michael -- and Walt -- wouldn't be a part of that since they had previously left the island, in a boat, not as part of a rescue mission.

Because books.
I meant Sun's baby when I posted that, Cindy. Also, CINDY!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I have a strong suspicion that Sun's apt is bugged. I think that also might be why Hurley & Sun kept up appearances.

Ooh, that makes sense Le N!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I keep thinking about Sayid killing people for Ben, and the fiction about the number of survivors that Jack & Kate are keeping up. The only time they acknowledged the truth was in a parking lot away from buildings and people.
I also was intrigued by the ship's captain talking about the amount of resources that it would take to fake flight 815's crash.
If Ben is behind that - he would likely bug the Oceanic 6 to make sure they kept this secret that Ben wants to protect so badly.
I am also wondering if Kate's nanny is a Ben employee.
