@Dresan: Yep, that would have been Iguanadon.
While this case could be like that, so can any case. Science works on the evidence available and the analysis of the minds examining the evidence. While it could be wrong, it could also be right. Can't just pass it off one way or the other.

@The Artgineer: It's a hypothesis with a whole lot of evidence supporting it. Science doesn't allow us to ever really know, but it allows us to come damn close, and this is one of those situations. It'll never be fully proven, but we may as well say we know it, what with the fossil evidence we have.
Yeah... it's 1 AM here. And I think just from looking at the screengrabs, I'm going to have nightmares. Thank you so much for this.
@Kaiser-Machead v.2.1.1: Well, some people might not like the function of OS X over Windows, but might think it looks better. This is for them. Those people can get the looks of OS X and the functionality of Windows.
I've been having a bit of a problem lately with flash player. I haven't updated my plugins in a while, and I still have Flash 10r45 installed. I'm trying to update to 10.1 but I'm not able to. Every time I do the update, it still tells me I have flash 10r45 installed. I've done a manual install, I've run the installer without the download manager, and I've followed all the steps on Adobe's support page for Flash. However, I'm just not able to install 10.1 on Firefox. It installs perfectly fine on IE8, though. Any ideas why I can't seem to update Flash?

@92BuickLeSabre: Seems the writers of the Old Testament were too cheap to hire good translators.
@Belabras: "Tired now and after a hard day of work, the man came into his daughter, angry and frustrated."
@Irrafixable: We'd have detected a second star by now, indirectly or directly. This is false.
@SirFenwick: It's hardly all theory when we have concrete evidence for it. They say hindsight is 20/20, and that partially is what this is. We have evidence about what happened before and we know it sometimes better than we know what's happening now because not only is the world a different place, but we're studying a world that today is constantly changing, as compared to a world in the past that has happened and isn't changing anymore. In some ways, it makes sense that we would know more about the past than about today.
Regardless, calling all this theory that'll never be proven is to ignore all the evidence that we have that has already proven it (fossil evidence, ice cores, types of rocks - most of this is mentioned in the article already, actually).

@jbrecken: I think it's because Charlie just didn't have anything to do with the island, plus his parents sort of hadn't met in the purgatory. That purgatory wasn't really needed for him. As for any other characters, I think Lost is more about Jack's tale, and it's his death that matters most. The others don't matter as much. Some people got off the island, grew old, and died. Hurley and Ben stayed and protected the island. Nothing more is really needed beyond that.
I completely disagree; I absolutely loved the entire episode and especially the ending. The show was, imo, about letting go of past baggage and moving on (something which everyone needed to do: Jack, Charlie, Kate, Sawyer, Sayid, and Hurley: They all needed to let go and move on). They didn't realize that they needed the island to let them do that, and how crucial it was that they meet. They tried to get away from it. The alternate Universe was what showed them just how wrong they had been. It was perfect.
@twophrasebark: Well, she made sure that Jacob and MIB couldn't kill each other, not that they couldn't die.
As far as Jacob bringing everyone to the island, I think it's a difference in perspective about people. Mother believes that people come, they fight, they destroy, and they corrupt. MIB believed the same thing after living with the people. But Jacob, who had never lived with the people, believed that people were inherently good, as he expressed in The Incident. So it makes sense that Mother would kill them all while Jacob would bring them all.

Will Wright. I want to know why he screwed up Spore. D:
@Burke: Well, many medical innovations used daily by Doctors and commercial innovations used daily by us (plastics, microchips), along with other innovations, would not have been invented if not for the Space Age. By investing more now in the space program, even in the recession, we could develop new technologies like those already developed by NASA that could be utilized by new companies. That would mean we could create new companies and jobs through space-age innovations, and that would be a massive boost to the economy. I'd say that's a tangible benefit.
You have invest something to get some return, after all.

@albinobluesheep: I think both are getting much better, and are worth it. They were crappy at first, but now I'm finding myself more hooked on each one. It's worth it.
Can we ride the Triceratops?
Oh my, there are no Lost spoilers. Is this then the future? I'd rather stay on the island. :(
What about shows for which the back catalog was already available? I started watching (and became obsessed with) Lost back in October, and the only reason I was ever able to get into Lost and the only reason they were able to nab me as a new viewer was because Seasons 1 to 5 were all on Hulu. So will those shows also go under the chopping block? Because I foresee a drop in potential viewers for networks for shows like Lost that require you to watch the previous episodes.
@BrettKS: Lost has a turnaround of less than 24 hours.
@frogitts: I find Hulu video quality to be much better than Netflix's quality, and more stable as well.
