Since last night's "LOST" was a rerun,

[Sheets of Easter]

what are some yet unanswered questions you still have?


I know they'll answer some of the more pertinent questions soon enough, but there are some I'm wondering if they'll ever address at all,

Examples:

How did the real Henry Gale happen upon the island? Was he just taking a hot air ballooning trip over the Pacific and got lost, or did he have a purpose for winding up there?

How did Hugo Reyes get the nickname Hurley?

1. There has not been any reference to the numbers

this season. I think they were only seen on the odometer in Hurley's car last year. For the first two season the numbers were a big damn deal. Now, we hardly see them.

2. They've popped up a couple times, but not as much.

It was 8:15 AM when Pierre Chang was received a call from one of the construction guys working on the Orchid. There was a couple more, but that one stands out.

The writers may be trying to get away from some of the more obvious numbers references.

3. Why did the Others still get Dharma food supplies?

The Others wiped out the Dharma initiative in 1992 and they still received Dharma food in 2004. If someone killed my people I wouldn't send them any food.

5. Perhaps Dharma thought the hatch was still under their control

and that it was a critical task that had to be maintained.

7. There were still Dharma folks living/working the Hatch

At least there were up until Desmond killed Kelvin.

Hi,
Good golly, if I would have been keeping a notebook I would have 3,587 questions. But since I haven't been, how about just one?

What the f is going on??

Peace

6. Will LOST re-runs be shown this summer? I'm TV-less - one of the idiots who never got

a converter box. Maybe I'll get one by summer.

8. Henry Gale's balloon had a sign on it indicating...

That it was affiliated/sponsored/built by the Widmore Corporation. (And, if you'll recall, the pregnancy tests that showed up in Season 2 were also manufactured by the Widmore Corporation.)

Now that Widmore seems to be taking a place as a major character, I suspect that we'll find out a little more about Henry Gale. (My guess: Widmore sent him on a balloon to try and find the Island. Or maybe his balloon was following one of the balloons that Dharma was using to drop food?)

9. I go to several sites when I get caught up obsessing about LOST's meaning

http://losteastereggs.blogspot.com

This is a forum that is filled wit speculation and wishful truths

And if you can get past despisng ABC, their LOST site is outstanding and has the most hits of any show on tv

10. Are the numbers really the latitude and longitude of the island

and did they have to be punched into the computer every 108 minutes in order to keep the island in the same location?

I remember reading that theory a long time ago (about the numbers being the location of the island) and now with the info that the island can move, it would explain the computer task (and why there was a flash when the numbers weren't punched in in time). I want to know for sure though.

11. Just finished Season 4 on DVD

Does Season 5 have a regular number of episodes for a full season?
