Hi Bob J. I see that Lucky9teen got her thread locked because you posted this one first. I'm guessing you're not aware that Lucky9teen has had the LOST ping list for a few years now and had already pinged her (extensive) list to her thread. Not that it's a big deal, but it would seem fair to allow her semi-official thread to continue as the FR Lost thread...as it has been for a very long time. She does a great job on it and spends a lot of time scouring the internet for spoilers and other information to post to her thread. Thanks.

The Losties, as mankind's representatives (as the have been throughout history) offer their lives up in sacrifice for their friends and fellow man breaking the ouroboros loop of time Jacob has put mankind in giving man time to “progress” on a spiritual level. The fifth age of mankind ends without it's destruction (as it has four previous times) and man joins other beings in a state of enlightenment that could not be termed anything else but “heaven”.

I second this. Lucky9teen has carried this official LOST thread and ping list for 5 seasons now. Please open this thread back up

[Bob J]

Fine by me, I wasn’t aware of that.

Funny, I’ve never seen a LOST thread on FR.

[Bob J]

I sent a note to the mods.

Then the bears crap out all of their food, founding the DNC.

[mom4kittys]

I got goosebumps reading that!!! Did you come up with it?

[Bob J]

Yes. Been researching LOST in a big way for a couple years. Got a lot of answers...

[mom4kittys]

Some people don’t have the attention span to watch lost. It is not passive television.

[lonevoice]

Thank you. I know she’ll appreciate it. She works really hard on that thread.

The stupidest show in the history of television. What exactly is the point of this mind-numbing crap?

In short, it's an extended nonlinear character study with a kind of sci-fi plot, very high production values, tight continuity, and an extremely active alternate reality game (which I've pretty much ignored; the show is still great). It's so full of allusions and symbols that it's been called semiotics pornography. The cast is brilliant, too. So's the music.

It's not for everyone, though. Fortunately, you've got options, like "Kitchen Nightmares" or "Biggest Loser: Couples."

[Bob J]

Heheh...good one!

The ARG’s, although not necessarily canon, have provided some good answers, for instance, the numbers. Want to know my theory?

[rwfromkansas]

Maybe I’ll give it a try. I do enjoy shows that require thought and active engagement, I just never got into this one for some reason.

But, maybe I will check it out tonight and give it another chance.

[Bob J]

Sorry, Luckynineteen, I wrote the mods and asked them to open it up in consideration of your long time dedication.

Present and accounted for!
