LOST again

While last night's show was compelling to the end, it once again posed more questions than answers. This means the questions that need to be answered now total 1,679, while questions that have been answered total 4. Bad ratio.

What's with all the bad feelings toward fishermen in South Korea? My dad liked to fish on occasion, does that mean I'm persona non grata in Seoul because I'm the "son of a fisherman"? Can any Korean readers explain?

Mikhail is still alive? Man, they have great special effects on that island, because I'm pretty sure I saw blood come out of his ears when he got fried by the fence. So does this mean Miss Klugh is still alive? Ethan? He'd be pretty dirty since they buried him. How about Ana Lucia and Hurley's girlfriend (what was her name, I forget)? Is Eko coming back to whup some booty with his Jesus stick?

I'm taking Juliet's comment on the tape to Ben "I haven't got Austen's sample yet" to mean Kate is indeed impregnated with the seed of Sawyer. And Juliet herself may be with child, seeing how they made a big deal of her being in bed with the big, virile Other guy.

"I hate you, Ben" says Juliet into the recorder. So she's an Other spy, but does her hate of ben mean she's batting for the Losties team now?

Desmond's comment to Charlie "you've killed more of them than they have of you," echoed past comments by me, and it was the first time the show's writers have acknowledged that fact. I'm telling you now, by the end of this show, the Others will be the good guys.

If you listened this morning, you heard a listener claim that the parachute girl (Naomi) mumbled "I am not alone" in Portuguese to Mikhail. Who's with her? More hot looking lady parachutists speaking romantic languages? The invading hordes from the northern hinterlands? Haircutters to restyle Charlie's coif?
(Anyone else catch that he has a new hairstyle?)

Hurley finds out the rest of the world thinks everyone died on Flight 815. Or is he dead? Or is the hwole thing a schizo hallucination of Hurley's while he sits catatonic in the mental hospital? Anything's possible at this point, and that's why I, a man of faith, will watch this bizarre show until the bitter end.

Your thoughts?

The show was called DOC: Alternate meaning for DOC:
Department of Corrections--is this a Devil's Island society?

The dead don't stay dead---is this island a "Pet Sematary"? We do see a lot of shout outs for Stephen King---

Our beloved 815’ers were methodically selected and subliminally herded, if you will, on to flight 815 for the sole reason of being able to stage the crash so no one would question their disappearances, and allow Hanso/Dharma the spiritually deficient test subjects they needed for their program; which is why parachute-girl heard on the news in the real world that the wreckage of 815 was found and that there was no survivors.
