found this info for the heir apparent stuff we never got past

type in “Heir Apparent” in the Newsletter Section.

When you’re asked if you’re there, type in “yes” and press return.

if you’re asked for the password, type in “breaking strain” and press return again

whoa.. crazyness. On the bios page, click the date below Alvar Hanso's picture

[Hupp]

i found this info

On the Hanso page, at the Active Projects link for WWPDP, click on “World Maps”. The map shows three dots showing ongoing project locations. However, if you put your cursor over the Bermuda Triangle, you will see another location pop up. At that point bring your cursor under the larger gray box to the left of the map. Hold the your mouse button down and you will see a faint message.

and took some SS.

If you go to the joop coner and send a message to joop.

send the numbers “4 8 15 16 23 42″ You then go to some island thing where you close the circles and then you get to view a document, if you click quick enough in the center when a red circle appears.

I'm so effing SHOCKED. I liked the finale but I'm like W00T?!

1. From what we saw, the hatch has blown up. But what happened to Charlie? He was there, or near it, when the whole "thing" happened. Are the three of them dead?

2. What about Sun, Kin and Sayid? It was night when the episode ended, and it was day last time we saw them. Maybe they find out that Sawyer/Kate/Jack are beeing taken and decide to try to rescue them.

3. The whole "electromagnetism" thing is interesting. Henry said the island couldn't be found. And this penny girl was trying to find something. The electromagnetic failure may POINT HER to where the island really is! I think those things are connected, but NO CLUE on why penny would be looking for the island, unless she knew desmond was there. And how would she know desmond was there?

4. Locke said that not pushing the button would "save us all". And I don't think the dreams he and eko had where about renewing Locke's faith in the button. "You gotta help John" that's what they said to Eko. They found the Pearl, and Locke stopped believing in the damn button. I think that's what the dreams were for...

5. Michael is not going to be a regular for next season, but he may reappear sometimes. I'm sure he will try to do something about the guys in the island... and this is where this Penny comes to play! We're finally getting some "outside-the-island" action.

6. Can't wait for next season! Or 24!!! !!!

HOLLY ****!!!, they captured them, do all the notebooks mean that the observers were an experiment too??

Exactly, Desmond said it, that the experiment was "backwards". The observers were the fake ones, the ones in the Swan were really saving the day, lol

how in the **** was the magnet strong enough to pull down a plane yet it was still somewhat barely pulling in all the other metal stuff....lame...

I don't think the magnet pulled down the plane, I think a "wave" screwed up the plane system and it ended up crashing there

Did anybody notice the Malcolm in the Middle girl held Kate's boobs for a second or so?

haha, very nice find :) and thats where she's from! malcom in the middle... the one who wore sweaters to hide her boobs.. aww. she's all grown up now, and kinda hot.

I don't think Locke and Eko are dead, they can't be! The flashbacks never showed why Locke was paralized before the island... they can't just leave off like that, thus proving Locke is alive.

Desmond, he was under the hatch, i think he will make it out a live as well.

as for Eko, he might of taken the blast full force, but maybe not. i think all 3 of them are safe and fine..

Jack has something planned thats for sure. Michael can't leave on a bad note like that. He'll come back, save them all, along with Sayid and Jin, and everyone will forgive Michael for doing this.

Could Desmonds girlfriend be behind all of this Lost mystery stuff? maybe she's the one who wanted him to remain safe.. by placing him on this island.. and maybe she's the owner of Dharma?

Julius Caro, do you keep up with lost? because a lot of your questions were answered.

1) Charlie is alive, so not all 3 of them are dead. it didn't show any blast, it could of been were the electromagnet is only, and only damaged the hatch.

2) it wasn't night where they left off.. they found were the "others" were staying, put up the smoke, and noticed something is wrong, and jump back in the boat again. of cource they will find them.

3) you wrote "And how would she know desmond was there?" if you listened, she said "with enough money, you can find anything". she either paid someone to hunt him down, or paid someone to put him onto that island.. maybe Calvin?

1) With 3 I meant: Locke, Eko and Desmond.

2) When claire kisses charlie it's night in the island. The last time we see Sun Kin and Sayid is when the sky went all weird, it was day.

3) If she knew where Desmod is, why keep him here for more than 3 years? They're obviously in love after so many years. She doesn't know exactly where he is, but she's looking for it.

I was on the Hanso site and clicked on the RSS button. It didn't show up right so I looked at the source and it says "Board of Directors updated" with several names listed below. Looks like there's new info to be found on all of the directors bios'.

To access the info:

• Alvar Hanso - Just click the date under the picture (like someone else here said). It shows the various locations Hanso has made public appearances. Claims his photo is actually of someone else and he hasn't been seen since 2002.
  
• Doctor Thomas Mittlewerk - Type "Heir Apparent" in the text box. Shows some girl, but I can't tell who it is. Also questions whether he really is a doctor.
  
• Hugh McIntyre - I'm sure it has to do with typing a password for the press release, but I can't figure it out.
  
• Peter Thompson - There's a textbox under his photo. I just can't figure out the letters to type in there. Maybe somebody with some video skills can slow it down and figure it out?
  

Hopefully somebody can fill in the blanks. A least we have something to do while waiting for Season 3 to get here.

[iconoclast]

fyi, I don't think the magnet crap pulls any craft onto the island, I think it just messes with the instruments which makes the crafts (planes, boats) crash.

Another question is how could the computers survive such large magnetic fields?

Lastly, WHERE WAS THE SMOKE MONSTER!

[Kaidiir]

This has probably been posted before, but what the hell.

Leading up to the third season there is going to be an ongoing "game", in which Lost-related details and mysteries will be revealed to the world (Hanso, etc.) An excellent website to keep up with the latest developments for this is thelostexperienceclues.blogspot.com. There are many others, but I've found this one to be current and full of good information.

I think that Penelope(Desmond's ex-girlfriend)'s father is the mastermind behind all of this. He's the leader of Hanso, the head of Dharma, and the one who set all of this in motion. Alvar Hanso is just an alias...perhaps Persephone has picked up on this?

Anyway, he was the one that originally "chose" Desmond for whatever the great grand experiment is. He made sure Desmond would get kicked out of the Army and get the idea in his head for the boat race. The course would take him directly to The Island.

The Russian guys in the snow hut at the end of the finale are employed by Penelope. She said that "with enough money and determination you can find anyone". Somehow she knew about the EM device/anomaly on The Island. I think that this device generated a constant EM field (and either it was broadcast in such a way as to not disrupt the computers or the computer/other electronics were shielded) that hid the island from all conventional sensors. Compass needles, GPS and other NAV systems couldn't make heads or tails of it. That's why when Desmond did his big screw up on September 22nd, Flight 815 happened(?) to be flying nearby and the elevated EM levels disrupted their equipment, bringing them down. Now, when Desmond inserted his key and activated the self-destruct sequence, the EM device overloaded, emitting a massive pulse of energy...big enough to be detected by Penelope and her Russian friends. This was the first time that we've seen the "Outside World". There is now proof that this is not some simulation on an alien spaceship, a colony of the last remaining humans on a nuclear-war-ravaged earth, or a big collective dream. It's real (in the context of the show).

Are the others employed by Penelope? Maybe they know about her and they work for her father, trying to keep the project a secret from the rest of the Losties? Where is their "home" if it isn't in those huts? What will happen to Sayid, Jin and Sun? Will Michael and Walt make it to the outside world? What will Hurley tell the rest of the Losties?

This is going to be a long summer.

[ew2x4]

Charlie joked about a large fire ball and a smoke monster at the end with Claire. We knew of one of those, I wonder if the smoke monster really happened.

[Riz360]

Brilliant Finale, My thoughts below

Desmond was right, it is the other way around. The button pushers were not the experiment, the observers were the experiment.

Remember in the Perl Orientation video he says something like

'You do not need to know what they think they are doing by pushing the button'

Why would the people observing have information withheld from them?

And the notebooks the observers were filling out, maybe the notebooks were monitored and checked to see if the Button pushers were begining to lose faith (Like Locke). And if so they would be replaced?

Also was it me or did Kate blink at Jack like they had a plan? It seemed that way...

I think for some reason Michael will hide Walt, and come back for the losties, in order to redeem himsellf.

yes i deleted the spoilers from my quote...so sue me..its already aired....

but i highly doubt the notebooks were getting monitored...considering they were all just sitting there in a big ****ing pile...

and yes it looks like Jack & Kate have a plan and the look from Sawyer makes me think he wasn't told about it...

I suppose they were being monitored at some point

Wonder why observation was abandoned if the electromagnet is so powerful...

What if the person who was pushing the button died? Were they counting on planes to get sucked in lol

EDIT: I find the spoiler tags kind of silly...if you have'nt watched the episode, don't come in here! What do you get apart from spoilers if you have yet to watch the episode.

It'd make sense if the monitoring station was for the purpose of checking to see if the people entering numbers wern't going insane so the "device" didn't blow up but that leaves the new question (as always, more questions!) why was there a fake video in the pearl?

Even bigger question, Why did the tube go nowhere, If they was monitoring the button pushes for sanity then someone would need to be reading there notes.

There are a couple problems with the "reversed experiment" theory. For one thing, why the hell would Dharma entrust a human being to push the button every so often instead of having a machine do that automatically, and have people stationed there doing other things that also keep an eye on the machine and make sure it isn't broken? That would get rid of the entire "faith" problem with the button. The way all of this is devised is obviously on purpose and carefully calculated.

The Others did not seem very worried about what appeared to be a catastrophic EM emission obviously originating from The Island (they sureley know about the magnetic device and the failsafe mechanism). Everything happened so fast though, you can't really tell if they were just trying to get everything under control and get Michael out of there, or if they expected that to happen or it didn't surprise them.

Oh, another thing that was strange is how charlie was so absolutley fine. Three of his "friends" just died and he's like "hey babes, wack me a big fat one on the lips". He does behave strange but thats something even a strange person would take heavier than that. So, isn't it likely that no one died?

Although, why wouldn't he explain that... also...?!!!

[Rob2687]

Did anyone watch that interview with Hugh McIntyre on Kimmel.... What was the deal with that?

Yeah...Charlie was definitely acting weird. When Claire tried to ask what happened he just kinda avoided it or something.

We do not know what happened to Eko, Locke or Desmond as they never showed them after the electromagnetic emmission. They could be fine, or dead, we also do not know what happened to the hatch, charlie probably just ran away when the blast came and seeing the crazy light thought nothing happened to the hatch. another theory is everyone in the hatch is fine and charlie just came out to see whats going on with the people on the beach.

also i just realized why desmond sailed west for days but never got where he wanted to go. if the island has a giant magnet his compas would not work correctly :p

[sirquacksalot]

So we've all watched two seasons of Lost and we still have no clue what's happening. Bring on season 3 :D

Wouldnt that mean michales wont work?

I also have an uneasy feeling about the general reception to the upcoming season. Some responses to the finale began to remind me of the Matrix trilogy.

The first Matrix movie was pretty widely acclaimed as a sci-fi gem. Each successive sequel was received with less positive praise than the previous film. While some say "they just sucked", I think it was more than that. When you watch the Matrix, it's the beginning to a story. The options are endless as to where the story could go. The fan's mind is going to map out all these possibilities and find the ones that he likes. When the sequels came out and the story actually chose one path, it inevitably alienated many fans. No matter what path the story took, fans wouldn't have been pleased. Particular fans may have, if the chosen storyline meshed with their own desires, but as a group, fandom would have been disappointed.

I think the same might happen with Lost. With the inhernet open endedness of the series, rumors and theories fly across the internet lightning fast. Just look at the number of websites dedicated to trying to figure out what's going on. The problem here is, people are picking the theories they like and hope that they are correct. When the series does start to take a direction, as it did with the season finale, only a minute few probably came even close to guessing what would happen, and I doubt anyone was remotely correct on all counts. Thi si sgoing to cause people to dislike where the show is going, not because it's a bad story, but because it's not their story.

Me, I'm not trying too hard to figure it out, and I'll judge the show based on its own merits, not whether the answers are the ones i want or not. I just hope others do the same.

Thats an excellent post! (Y)

[Joel]

I'm so effing SHOCKED. I liked the finale but I'm like W00T?!

w00t means something like, "yahoo!"

The acronym you're looking for is "wtf?"

[Am_I_Evil]

interesting fact:

Clancy Brown plays: Joe Inman in Sayid's flashback

Clancy Brown plays: Kelvin Inman in the finale

bad twin?

[noPCtoday]

i think im missing something here.

hanso foundation is a real foundations right? since it advertises it self on ABC during the LOST ad break.

and from previous post there seems have some connections between hanso foundation & LOST am i on the right point?

[Rob2687]

I'm pretty sure it's a fictional organization. Those TV ads are just to encourage people to watch commercials.
