    Mikey, when you brought that up it was like an epiphany!! I seriously think you're onto something there.


    Haha...I can't take complete credit, I think I read it somewhere else.

    Yeah, well I'll have you know I had CRUNCHY Raisin Bran this morning, with very little milk. :D That was more a product of me being late to work though.

    P.S. I want to congratulate you on admitting that you can't take complete credit. Now if everyone would just do that... :roll:

    I seriously don't agree with that AT ALL. Why are you so insistent that they'd be persecuted? The O6 were victims of an unfortunate plane crash...not terrorists.

    I'm not saying that they should be persecuted, but I could see an airline being reluctant to have them all on the same flight for liability reasons. Let's say for example the plane they're all on does crash (it might have for all we know.) When it got out that they were all on the plane together, could you imagine the potential lawsuits against the airline by the other passengers' families.

    From a fiscal and a liability sense I can't see an airline letting them all fly together with the exception of Oceanic.

    I'm sure their names would run a flag in the system computers - that's all I'm saying.

    Probably, but I work in a legal department and deal with liability issues all day so that's probably why it's stuck in my head. ;)

    Makes perfect sense to me why it would bother you then! I have a similar problem with the psychiatric hospital that Hurley's been staying in. I used to work in mental health many years ago and still have friends in the field. It just drives me NUTS that Hurley and the other patients wear their pajamas all the time. That is NOT characteristic of a psych facility. :roll: But then it doesn't affect the story like what you're bringing up.

    This is something that has been bothering me - what airline would accept reservations for 4 members of the Oceanic 6 on the same flight heading to the South Pacific?

    I mean Jack, Hurley, Sayid and Sun all presumably would be using their real names and Kate would have to be using some sort of fake id because she's still under probation and can't leave the state.

    Wouldn't some sort of red flag go up on the airline computers not letting them be on the same flight sort of how like brothers can't be on the same ship in the navy for example?

    I just can't see how any airline would allow all of them to purchase tickets for the same flight.

    WHy not? They're not on a terrorist watch list.

    Exactly! They aren't terrorists, just famous. Can Brad Pitt, David Beckham, Paul McCartney, and Jack Nicholson also not fly on a plane together?

    Now that would be one entertaining flight!

    Yeah, I liked that too, just about the only thing I liked about the meeting in the church. So much build up to that and then so little revelation. :|

    There WAS no revelation. Nothing that woman said made any sort of sense...(other than her comment about Ben lying). "So yeah, in order to get back to the island you need to recreate the Oceanic flight as best as you can...and the 06 all need to be there...well yeah...except for Aaron...and oh, yeah...Ben's going to be on the flight even though he wasn't initally...and another thing, Locke is dead and is going to play Christian on this flight...so you need something of your dad's...shoes? great!...and look, they're a perfect fit!" COME ON! :roll:

    Dudes, I would just like to add that I agree with both of what you ladies are saying!

    You had me up until the 3rd paragraph...then you lost me. LOL

    And, I too, kept waiting for the thing to hit Des.[/quote]
    Oh, well, I was remembering that after Mrs. Hawking gave Jack Locke's suicide note he went upstairs and found Ben kneeling in a pew like he was praying. Ben then showed Jack a picture of Thomas the Apostle and told Jack the story of how Thomas didn't believe in Jesus's resurrection until he saw and touched Jesus. Jack acted like it was the first time he'd ever heard it in his life. Maybe religious instruction was not a high priority in his family.[/quote]

    Was Jack Catholic? I can't remember. I don't think his family was religious.

    I was raised Catholic, even went to Catholic school....and didn't know the story of Thomas the Apostle. (But then again, I'm a shitty Catholic.)[/quote]

    I was raised Catholic and went to Catholic school through high school and the only Thomas story I knew was "doubting Thomas".
