Word Freak

Aside from the Gilgamesh illusion (42 down, natch), is there anything else anyone can find in Locke's crossword puzzle? I looked up ETE (26 down), which has been cited as an anagram for Electronic Training Environment, Engineering Test Equipment, and Environmental Test Engineering.

And is it just me, or do some of these words make absolutely no sense? Sure, crosswords use combination clues (like "a man" = "aman"), but nonetheless, "acolins," "alain, " and "ghare" aren't in the dictionary. I guess Locke has to have a few flaws, like being bad at crosswords.

Eko rules!

P.S. In concordance with my theory that Eko is Locke's "echo", their first words spoken are simply: "Hello" and "Hello."

Gettin sloppy?

Note the clear differences between the original Orientation film strips (top) and the new insert provided by Eko (bottom). His hair, the lighting in general, and even his jacket lapels look different.

Embarassingly sloppy continuity error, or a clue?

My latest hunch: There are more film clips in the other 4 bunkers/hatches (representing the other, undiscussed jump cuts in the Orientation film), and that the film was never originally made that way: It's all a game to see if they'll put it together and actually believe it.
