The Popups - 3/6

They mentioned the lack of the whooshing noise. They're watching us, we know it, and they don't care. :|

Confirmed that Daniel Faraday's watch and the rocket clock from episode 3 were synchronized. In other words, Regina wasn't playing a trick. :p

Reclarification: Michael Faraday was the inventor of electromagnetic induction.

"There is a real Camp Millar in Svalbard, an archipelago far north in the Arctic Circle. In Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, Svalbard is a gateway to parallel universes."

"The purple light radiating on Eloise parallels the purple light that filled the sky after Desmond turned the failsafe key in the DHARMA Swan station."

"One of the equations on the board is the Kerr metric equation, which some scientists believe implies the existence of time travel."

Thanks for the pop-up info, Jimp. Very cool info, some of which I missed.

Are you enjoying the rain?

I feel so smart now for having read the His Dark Materials trilogy. Those were my favorites in middle school. Now I'm excited to see if the whole Svalbard/gateway-to-other-worlds thing plays out...of course, it probably will if they mentioned it, but it's good to get us speculating. Perhaps there was another point like Svalbard in the Pacific around the island and everyone enters it when they get close enough, but it's hard to exit? Great, now I'm going to have to go back and read each one again with a more critical Lost eye. *rolls eyes*

"Faraday's chalkboard includes physicist Enrico Fermi's error as depicted in a famous photo."

Henry James and Mick Jagger have lived on Cheyne Walk.

((The rain is awesome.))
