Wow... Seriously I love this show. This season is definitely better, so far, than last season. Starts quicker, more surprises, more excitement. I've actually heard complaints that people haven't liked the episodes so far in that "nothing has happened". Why are people so annoyed with this show when they don't get answers immediately? Why are people not enjoying the ride, and instead demand things to be completed so quickly? They wanted the Oceanic Six to be revealed in the first episode, for the "rescue" to happen right away, just ENJOY IT!!! There are only, how many now, 45 episodes left? Just have fun. Just enjoy it for what it is. Because when it is over, you won't be able to enjoy this feeling of wondering what will happen, guessing and theorizing on the answers, while still enjoying little revealing moments in the show. I for one relish it. But I know there are a lot of impatient people out there. Oh well...I can't wait for the next episode and want to know what people feel about the first three so far.

What is Minkowski's purpose - is he Ben's "man on the boat"?

Why have the Oceanic Six made this pact not to speak of the island?

Why is Sayid working for Ben off island - and do the other 5 know about this?

What about the 31 (or so) minutes difference in time between freighter and island?

Well these are just a few questions off the top of my head, if I thought for 10 minutes I'm sure I'd have 50 more.
