But I think it is important that the Elizabeth was messed up, but not unrepairable, like the computerized, electronic planes and helicopters! And one guy (Kelvin Inman) was going to be able to repair it. I think Inman had said it would be ready in about a week. And something caused Henry Gale's balloon to crash, too! So does coming to the island create more of a problem for electronically controlled (my VERY scientific terminology) machines, than manually conrolled transports? And, CableRunner, if you have to be strapped in for that ghastly last leg of the journey - who's driving? Or is it just a free-fall, straight in? (because i think the island in in a bubble, but not on the surface of the earth - think of a pocket extending either into the earth, or out from the earth, connected by a small conduit - a snow globe of a universe.)

*Ephiphany!* Ben Linus originally claimed to be Henry Gale, which turned out to be false. Wonder if he's not really Ben Linus either?
