His leadership style is nice compared to the "frantically fix it" style Jack had/has. I love that JIM was thinking things through before taking action. Kind of like when he was setting up a con - you gotta think through ALL the angles. I hate the name "Jim", though.

I thought that was their purpose: to counterpoint Jack's heroic actions on the island with a flawed, unaltruistic motivation.<BR/><BR/>On a completely unrelated note, I just want to point out that, apart from Jin, all the Oceanic Flight 815 survivors on the 1977 photo were on Michael's list of people to bring to the Others at the end of Season 2.

Hooo-hooo! This will be interesting.<BR/><BR/>I wish they'd jettison the stupid love quardrangle. That just makes the show soapy and tiresome.

I couldn't shake the feeling that I have absolutely no idea what they're DOING back on the island. Everyone is still waiting to find a purpose. Leave? Stay? They came back because Locke said everyone on the island would die, but Locke stopped the time jumps just by leaving. So what's the plan? I'm so curious! I want everyone reuinited and safe and alone, away from the Dharma Initiative, because it kills me watching these alliances self-destruct from the inside.

Judging by the damage to the barracks they are on the island post-freighter, is it possible they are sometime in the future. Or maybe back during the three years the significant six were gone. <BR/><BR/>Maybe the reason everyone was separate is due to the Sawn/Hatch. Jack, Kate and Hurley spent of lot of time in there, no doubt being exposed to all sorts of electromagnetic time, space stuff. I can’t think Sun ever stepped inside. As for Ben? Maybe he really can’t go back to the main island. The Hydra is as far as he can go. <BR/><BR/>And where is Daniel? Walking the jungle like Kane from Kung Fu? Quantum leaping around the space time continuum? Or maybe he headed back to the mainland and invested in Star Wars merchandise. That’s what I’d do.Mark Greighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12984193299389764649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-46667213364503056352009-03-20T08:53:00.000-04:002009-03-20T08:53:00.000-04:00"-- Even though we didn't see the Monster, we hear..."-- Even though we didn't see the Monster, we heard it.
