Time magazine's comment on the ep:
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

[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.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'm totally calling the monster "Puffy."
Was it a Google site that locates points on the opposite side of the earth? Anyone wanna experiment with a point in Nigera? Doesn't it seem that our Island of Mystery would be the opposite point?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Wow. That lands one smack in the middle of the Pacific. Neat.

What is even happening?
aurelia's so smart.
I don't know how Mr. Eko's brother and his kidnappers could get that far in such a little plane, but *jazz hands jazz hands* I think you're onto something.

It might also explain how the Black Rock could have wound up so far inland and relatively intact.
On a vaguely related note, what I would love is for someone to look up at the stars one night and realize that the constellations are entirely wrong for where they think they are.

The closest coordinates are south and east of the coast of Nigeria. It's a stretch -- but what isn't, for this show?
Have a look at: [link]
The line is plotted from 0N 0E (on the equator at the prime meridian) to the antipodean coordinates.
Compare to this: [link]
The lines are the great circle flight paths from Sydney to Los Angeles, Fiji to Honolulu, and Fiji to the numbers used as coordinates south and west.
The big circle is a 3000 nautical mile radius around Sydney, and the small circles are 1000nm around Fiji and Honolulu.
Still a stretch, I think.
