Please post any clues found through the www.oceanic-air.com site here.

I set up a fake container to receive the emails.

Here's the pull for 815 from that site. See anything familiar?

Flight: #815
Status: Alert
Airport: SYD
Scheduled: 14:04
Actual: 14:08
Gate: 15
Airport: LAX
Scheduled: 03:16
Actual: 03:23
Gate: 42

Who said there was no 42F? There's a 42F. WHen I loaded it up, only one seat was shown as filled...9E Carlyle, Boone. HHHmmmmm....is it possible an Artz seat will be filled? WHOA! I clicked on Boones seat. It flashed an image of Boone several times. Now the seat, 9E is no longer shown as occupied...it was green...

Something else is odd. The homepage says OceanicAir had financial difficulties in the wake of the 815 tragedy. Yet, the tracking pull shows the flight having ARRIVED in LA seven minutes late. WTF? A tragedy in arriving late? So, did it crash or was it late? Here we go with time theory again. Will it turn out in the amount of time the aircraft was late (Henceforth known as The Missing Seven Minutes) the Lostaways were able to live out an entire adventure?

This would imply Oceanic815 actually ARRIVES at some point (end of story?). Could the Others be people who couldn't make it back from their own trips...caught on the island with no way to return. If they did return, would they arrive Seven Minutes late as well?

Now then, the big thing I want to talk about is the Monster. I probably inflicted irreperable damage to my TiVo rolling back and forth through the Locke monster scene. We definitely see a THING flit around and that THING is not a regular animal. It's some sort of vapor/ghosty creature.

So, what the hell IS IT?

It seemed, at least to me, that the vapor/ghost was actually the residual smoke from the dynamite explosion and the the creature or whatever, sort of "scuked it back in," for want of better phrasing. Thus the smoke was haniging on the monster so as to make it visible, but the smoke isn't actually THE monster. At least that was my interpretation.

Side note: in case you don't already know this, The X-Files was inspired by the original Mightstalker series. This is why Chris Carter had darren McGavin guest star a couple of times.

I found the hidden text on the homepage, on the right hand side underneath the message from the CEO saying the airline is busted. There is an "se" dangling outside the frame for part fo the message at the top. Im not sure how it unlocked. Not sure if I did anything or not. I enterend the flight info on the boxes, there are six age categories at the bottom, which is odd, so I punched in the numbers there...

Couple theories and tidbits of info...

Check out http://www.oceanic-air.com/ - I came across it today and I'm not too sure what it is all about but cool nonetheless.

Also, I find this to be very strange. This morning I clicked on the LOST website and clicked the Diary link. The mysterious writer that everyone was talking about a month back had signed her name and where she was from. I was at work and figured when I came home I could check it out but now it is gone. I do remember her being from California but that's it. I don't think this will play onto the show unless in season 2 they mention the characters name real quick in a scene just to get us all excited.

I think that the Hatch will eventually lead to the home of the the "others" (also from the dark tower). They want youth to train and become one of them because when you are young you can be trained where as everyone else is set in their ways. I also think the guy on the boat was not the leader of the others but just the guy sent to do the dirty work. We will be introduced to a leader of the others in the upcoming season.

I also believe in season two either Jack or Locke will see Charlie's statue and there will be a series of events having Charlie act weird. One of the two will flip on Charlie only for it to be revealed that he is clean and was legitimately using it to pray. Afterall, wasn't he a religious guy before the drugs?

re: the seating chart, there are 42 rows, which is the largest of the bad numbers. Kate was on row 23. Boone and his sister were on 8, I believe.

I think the person who said there was no 42F was looking at the letter assignments for first class, but there is a 42F. When I click on 42F, I got a green seat for Shannon Rutherford, and a picture of Sayid near that. Clicking on the green seat, the picture of Sayid cleared up and I got a view of his passport briefly. I also got Kate's picture to show up, as well as Mars, the agent taking her back.

1.I also saw the dangling edges of the hidden messages on the oceanic web page.

2.re the sucked in to LOST - I NEVER watch TV - dont know any commercials people talk about, dont know the American Idol contestants etc. someone turned on LOST while visiting and now I and my 9yr old son are addicted to it!

3. The 7-minute theory - it sounds right on to me. Furthermore, i saw the writers in an interview and they said that they put together a bunch of their influences for Lost. One they mentioned was the Twilight Zone. The 7minute theory sounds very Twilight Zone-ish. This interview was also the one in which they claimed there would be no 'unexplainable' sci-fi answers - that everything would make good sense.

4. Im just happy that they provided some sense of resolution in the finale - we got to see in the hatch (could you imagine if they left it just as they were about to open the hatch?). and Claire got her baby back.

5.re Sawyer jumping in the water - is it possible that he wasnt hurt? Just that he saw the chance to get in the water to save Walt? In the fall, will we find Sawyer hanging onto the Others boat trying to sneak on to save Walt? Will he somehow singlehandedly kill the Others and Sawyer and Walt will rescue Walts dad and Jin and continue on to find land and save the lost group?

My apologies to Found for reposting -- clearly, I didn't read close enough beforehand.

If anyone else wants to see the pink "Exodus, II" script sheet, you can find it here.

If you're like me and didn't have a clue what a Mapinguari is, you can find out more about this "beast" here.

And Found -- nice work finding this thing. I had a hell of a time digging it up.

Coco and fabe,
On the front page, I found a pink sheet from the "Exodus, Part II" script. It has dialogue between Sun and Kate. And included a scene where Charlie runs from the monster through the jungle.
The monster is described as: Huge. Mechanical AND biological. Godlike and profane. A massive, multi-tentacled robotic beast resembling a primordial mapinguari - only partially obscured in a cloud of acrid smoke!

The entire description is crossed out and in the margin is scribbled, "No! No! No!!! No Mapinguari!!

These two messages are also on the page:

If anyone should find this message, please get word to Sandra Rafflethorpe of Palm Avenue in Lewiston, Idaho that her sister, Sally is alive and stranded on an island somewhere in the South Pacific. Please send help soon. Things are bad. And they're getting worse...
Sally


Robert D. West, of Santa Barbara, California, USA survived a horrific plane crash and is stranded on an island somewhere Northeast of Australia and Southwest of Hawaii. In the event that I am never found, please forward word of my fate to parents, Mr. and Mrs. John West, of Tucson Arizona. Thank you.
Robert

Alright, seating chart stuff. At some point I was able to get a drawing of the Island with writings on it. It says:

"The sea we see
Danger along the clear gulfs
Silver reflections"

"Facing winds"

"Has silver reflections... the
sea of changing reflections
At the edge of [can't figure out the translation]
a [same thing]
Blue regret"

It also says that the western part of the Island is "the wild side". The eastern part is the "bug-infested side".

It also points to the top of the mountain and it says "crater".

The Island is between 2,500m and 3,000m. That would make the Island between 8,333feet to 10,000 feet tall.

If I can ever see that drawing again, I'll try to decipher the two words I couldn't understand.

Sha la la.

This Oceanic site is pretty clever.

The "se" on the right hand side of the page is part of two hidden messages. You can see both of them if you do the View > Source trick with your browser (for those of you who haven't wasted good portions of your life doing HTML, the View > Source tool allows you to see the HTML coding behind any Web page).

If you do the View > Source and look all the way to the bottom of the ensuing text document, you'll find the following two "hidden" messages:

Message 1 If anyone should find this message, please get word to Sandra Rafflethorpe of Palm Avenue in Lewiston, Idaho that her sister, Sally is alive and stranded on an island somewhere in the South Pacific. Please send help soon. Things are bad. And they're getting worse...Sally

Message 2 Robert D. West, of Santa Barbara, California, USA survived a horrific plane crash and is stranded on an island somewhere Northeast of Australia and Southwest of Hawaii. In the event that I am never found, please forward word of my fate to parents, Mr. and Mrs. John West, of Tucson Arizona. Thank you.Robert

The Home page or the seating chart and where do you click to unlock what you mention above?

I swear I'm going to bed... sorry for the constant posting but check out what I found...

http://www.oceanic-air.com/seatingchart.htm - this site is registered by abc & disney. This I somehow came across but couldn't find my way back to it. It seems to be a game where you can unlock maps and passports and such. Start by clicking on seat a of each of the cursed numbers.

But here's the weird part... according to the map... there is no seat 42F! So what you ask? That's the seat that Ana-Lucia repeated a couple times as her seat number in last weeks episode... does that give anyone any ideas?

ok, i'm done for the day.

Also found two more messages from the bottle:

This is Bob Jones, of Tulsa Oklahoma and I would like to inform the First National Bank of Enid
that I will be late making my September mortgage payment as I am STRANDED ON A FRIGGIN’
ISLAND IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE! Please have the government send a search team
immediately or don’t all the taxes I pay cover an expense like that?

BJ

If you are reading this note PLEASE get word to my wife, Christina Smith that her husband,
Jake survived the crash of Oceanic Flight #815 along with 47 others.
Darling, I miss you so much and dream of the day I can see your face again.
The very thought of that day is all that keeps me going here. Please don’t forget me!

Jake Smith

fabe,i went on the oceanic link but didnt find anything on it re the seating chart, just the destination airport LAX, like you said. Where did you go to find more info?

I hate to double post so my apologies but check this out...

http://www.oceanic-air.com/

If you got to the site a lot of it is down but there are hidden things. If you click on flight tracker and type in 815 it says that the plane actually landed just a few minutes late in LAX.

The inflight magazine has something too..

If anyone finds anything else interesting, please pass it on...

more seating chart stuff.....

I think clicking on 42F when you get there starts opening up the seats, but I dont know for sure.

This time, I got Charlie (29C) which brought up a diary that had a picture of Claire and Charlie, but Charlie was scratched out. I couldnt read what was on the diary pages.

Then Jack (23a), the plane configuration seemed to change. And Flight 815 in the corner changed to Oceanic 777.

then, Rose (23D). there was a Russian Vodka bottle that moved around the screen.

Should we move talk about the webiste to a new thread?

In the Island insider section, there is an offer to become part of a "special email list to receive communications directly from the Lost Writing team." They ask you a question, and then they ask for your email. Now I'm wondering about the legitamacy of this web site. Are they really affiliated with ABC and Disney, or do they just want another email address to spam?

Hello, long time reader, first time poster.

When you get to the seating chart, the numbers at the bottom of the chart indicating the rows of the airplane, click the "cursed" numbers 4-8-15-16-23-42 in order, and you will get a preview for next season.
What does it mean? I have no idea.

allright -- it's a little bit of a mess in here (the individual posts transfer mechanism is pretty screwy), but there *should* be enough to go on to get things rolling.

AgentX -- nice call with the preview. I'm very interigued by the tagline:

They're Not the Survivors They Think They Are

"They're Not the Survivors They Think They Are"

Yes that intrigued me too, also the fact that it says they will get to the other side of the island.

Was that Sawyer running through the jungle? I couldn't tell if that was supposed to be old footage or new. As if the show didn't leave us with enough questions, now they are giving us more. It will be a long summer.
