Maybe one of them used it as an alias after they got back. Look at the influences listed on that page. It would be a pretty big coincidence that Jeremy Bentham just so happens to seem to fit the name in the paper.

Someone on another forum mentioned that Jacks flash forward could have been a premonition type thing like Desmond.

Jeremy Bentham = Philosopher

John Locke = Philosopher

One of the thing really confusing in this episode is Jack's father issue -

If this is Indeed a Flash Forward, his Dad is Alive?

I suppose.

What threw me for a loop was the flash forward...I was thinking the entire time that the casket was his father, and that Jack would jump on the plane that crashed at any point (Maybe after a shave :rofl:).

My theory on the casket...It's either a survivor of the crash, or some unnamed character. It's hard to tell because Kate did respond to Jack saying he went to this funeral with a puzzled "Why would I do that" (Or something to that effect). Another odd thing was that Jack sort of seemed surprised that nobody came to that viewing of the body (Which could suggest that this is a survivor). And it's good to take note that this death is big enough to be a news Headline) I don't think it's Ben/Locke, because I strongly believe that if/or when they do die...It will be on that island.

As for the deaths, I was pleasantly surprised that nobody of extreme importance died (Locke, Jack, Sawyer, Sayid, Desmond, Etc.). We all pretty much expected Charlie to died, and the rest were all 'Others'.

Death count for this episode: 16 Plus the flashback death (casket)...17.

Will be interesting to see who comes to the island next. However I do think Ben is telling the truth, A much greater 'enemy' will be introduced Possibly even leading to a future cooperation between Ben/Others and Jack/Survivors. It might be far down the road, But it could be possible that have to cooperate together at some point (Obviously it's not going to be soon, considering that they are blowing each other up and killing each other).

Excellent episode...Can't wait for Season 4.

Also a part that I really enjoyed was how sad Jack had become. You could feel sorry for the way he was so important on the Island, And now it seems he is nothing to anyone. Especially when he mentioned how he prays for another crash, and how he flys around from place to place stepping off of the plane for a drink, then getting back on and going home.

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but that Nirvana song that future Jack was listening to in the car is called Scentless Apprentice. It is known for the lyrics being based on a book called "Das Parfum" by a German writer named Patrick Suskind. In the book, a child possess an extraordionary scense of smell, but has no human scent of his own. Eventually, he becomes a perfumer's apprentice and creates hundreds of new scents. He is taught by a man named Baldini.

Probably just useless information, but I know how books are sometimes snuck into episodes. On that end, I got nothing. Anybody else think it relates to anything?

    • what other retro software do yall use

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛

      At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
