“We are very eager to resume flying and apologize for any inconvenience our temporary closure may have caused our loyal customers,” said Michael Orteig, President, Oceanic Airlines. “Oceanic Airlines is proud to be a top tier flight provider and looks forward to providing travelers with many more years of unparalleled service.”

Having a real good time with http://www.find815.com. So many interesting little tidbits coming to light. And people are posting their thoughts and findings on http://www.find815.blogspot.com. It's all great stuff. I just finished watching Season 3 again so I am ready. And there's some interesting info on the bonus disc as well.

The bonus disk has all kinds of goodies like bloopers and how things were made and getting to know the crew and other behind the scenes stuff. What's really intriguing, though, is watching the episodes with commentary. Cuse and Lindelof drop little hints here and there (probably by accident in some cases) about what we can expect. For example, Annie will figure into future episodes in a big way. Anyone remember her? (And don't look it up! That's cheating. Wink )

Nice little discussion going there, Eleri. And I think most of the discussion is right on the money...as far as what they're going to find. But, they're gonna have a lot of 'splainin' to do if the plane is intact....which according to Naomi is the case. But, I will not join another forum. I will not....I....grrrr.

The BluRay version of the Lost 3 DVDs have a few extra bits, including a section where the heard writer's actually answer a few questions definitively (like whether a few people are actually dead or not, the nature of the button, etc).

There are big posters all over town saying "Answers are coming" with a picture of one of the cast members. Then in parenthesis bellow it is "(Unless you're with Virgin Media)"

I am SO going to be right about Find 815. I just know it. And I am going to happydance gloat all over the 'lage.

The transcript for Missing Peice #13 looks fantabulous, too. Can't wait for that one to be available online.

Going to watch the enhanced presentation of the season 3 finale on Wednesday, Prof

I was on the fence about Wednesday night because I had just watched all of season 3 up until just a few weeks ago. What, dear Eleri, is the enhanced presentation? I can't seem to find a description of it on ABC?

I think I'm up to date on Find815, but I haven't seen any of the Missing Pieces yet.
I won't be watching the ABC premiere because Bri has a work function to go to that night (ok, seriously, whose brilliant idea was that? They're all geeks, right? Not one of them caught the overlap in dates?) so we're going to wait until it's available on iTunes and download it so we can watch it together. Here's hoping we don't miss anything that way. ::fidget::
