Do you know what I mean when I say that first paragraph sounds like a person trying to explain something they have no idea about, but they still want to sound smart? I got through college producing the exact same kind of thing, smart enough to sound like i know what I am talking about, unless some one asks a question...

I see what you mean

But considering that majority of the LOST audience is not trained in advanced physics, I think "that's squat" is going to be somewhat the general feeling for most of us anyways. Tons of speculation, attempted explanation and excitement yet no agreeable clarity. Personally I enjoy that to some extent, though I'd understand the frustration as well. This can only be preferable to the producers though. I am positive they'd prefer semi-literate speculating you mentioned, to some physics professor objecting to, say, the narrative's imaging of the relation between some massive release of EM and time travel via wormholes, parallel universes etc. Pseudo-science often proves to be a lot more fun
