How come Ethan wasn't on the submarine (1977) in the original time line? Baby Miles and Young Charlotte were both on the submarine with their mothers in the original time line. So we know that a submarine with women and children left the island in both time lines prior to the incident (and that some type of event known as "the incident" occurred in both time lines). What would have kept Amy from leaving the island w/ Ethan in the first time line that didn't keep them from getting on it in the second? I know that at some unknown point of time Ethan became an Other leaving Dharmaville like Ben did, but Ethan was only a baby in 1977 so he was still in his mother and fathers care.

I know I said in a previous blog post that I would try to cool it with all the nitpicking, but its in my nature.

I have decided that in the end, I will not be upset if all the unimportant loose ends aren't tied up. I believe that my Ethan question is an unnecessary one to be answered by the writers because the overall story of LOST and my personal viewing experience won't be ruined if they overlook the detail.

That being said, I do take pleasure in nitpicking out the details of this show and I will continue to do so...its all in good fun.

I am also curious to hear all of your opinions.

Namaste.
