Question About Smokie

[WaltsDog]

Hello, newbie here!

I was just reading an old question and answer session from 2006-2007 with two of the shows producers and one answer really got me intrigued.

Here is the question by the fan:

"In the ''death of Mr. Eko'' episode, it was my interpretation that the Monster was able to assume human form, i.e., Eko's brother. Am I crazy for thinking that? And will we learn anything more about the Monster's origins this season?"

And here are their answers:

"LINDELOF: You're not crazy. You will see the monster again this season. Its origins, however... well, you'll have to wait.
CUSE: Whether or not you learn more about it will depend on how obsessive you are. If you enjoy recording the program and studying individual frames, you might. But really, is that healthy?"

So my question is, have any of you actually done this and saw something we've all missed? I heard that everytime the smoke monster appears, there's a clue in the background somewhere....
