the flash happened at 11am right? they made a special point of telling us the odds of the flash happening right at the top of the hour. (which is pointless anyway because the odds would be exactly the same whatever hour, minute etc.)

but what i want to know is what time do baseball games start? i mean are the stadiums always full at 11am?

Is it too obvious that (penny's) man in her vision is the baddy? Its all a bit predictable if it is.

We had 1:05 starts just last week...

And as a Detroiter, I can confirm that tailgating starts pretty early here. ;)
(often a little too early.)

The thing about the time was that the probability that this thing would happen, by random chance, at the top of the hour was 1 in 3600 - yes, the same as the random chance of it starting at any particular second of the hour. Making things happen at the top-of-the-hour, though, is a very human thing to do. So it seems to suggest a human cause for it, ie., someone deliberately made it happen at that exact time, rather than random chance, ie., it was just a cosmological event.

So based on what she said that it was 11am when people blacked out. They are in Ca if i am not mistaking and its 2 hrs later in detroit where the game was so that means it was 1pm when this happened. its true that games can start at 1p but whats the chances of the stadium being at almost max capacity by game start. There was also the players on the field all passed out as well so was this just an oversight in the directing? But that is the only explanation I can come up with.

So it was probably the middle of the third.

Oh I thought detroit wa san hr behind NY. OK anyway its 2p in Detroit. So it can very well be correct and no error in the writing of the story

Heck, if it's anything like this past summer... it would look to warm to be June! :D

(for those who don't live here... it was a really cold summer.)

With 'Penny' staring in this show, is it safe to say she won't be showed much in the final season of lost?
