The latest on Ken Leung (according to Michael Ausiello over on TV Guide) is that its unknown who he will be playing. Reports initially had him as a brilliant mathematician, but Ausiello's latest report indicated that the role might be top secret (a.k.a. only Cuse and Lindelhof know what he is playing, and they're not telling).

Still, if we get a mathematician, I think you're right - the Numbers get addressed in some way or fashion, to explain some of the strange things going on with the Island.

Lance Reddick's role, though, is even more interesting to me - is this a "flashback" character, who recruits people to the island? Does he play in the future? Is he on Naomi's boat with "new recruits" to repopulate (or perhaps, retake) the island?

(How I will last until Season 4 stars, I do not know...)

Maybe it's different here, but everyone I know listens to KGO nearly every day.

My friends here get very involved in radio programs, particularly news and debate, and it's where the urban European elite get their 'high-end' news. The print media here is all tabloids, and the TV is all based on the CNN model ("let's just talk about the same story all day"), so radio's the only option for actual news.

As for me, I haven't listened to the radio in years. There's simply too much great stuff on the Internet (and now, my iPod) to pay much attention to what Chamillionaire is up to these days.

Lance Reddick, who plays (or perhaps more accurately, embodies) Lt. Cedric Daniels on HBO's awesome "The Wire", has been cast on Lost to play Arthur Stevens, some type of intense, dangerous corporate recruiter type (for Dharma? The evil people on Naomi's boat? Start discussing!).

Also, Ken Leung (who played the guy that beat up Uncle Junior in the nuthouse on Sopranos, and was a pretty fantastic actor in his own right) has been cast on the show in an unknown role.

So what does everyone think? Me? I'm thinking this is proof that Lost is amazing, taking some of the best actors out there (a la Michael Emerson) and adding them to their already stellar cast. Expect the quality of Lost to CONTINUE to ratchet up over its final three seasons.

(Seriously, who, like me, can't WAIT until this show comes back in late January-early February? Most anticipated season premiere of all time? I think so...)

These events tend to encourage a shame about your own countries history and that's something people are not encouraged to examine in this, my country's the greatest thing since toilet paper, world.

Good luck getting back into teaching.

The only AM radio I listen to is sports events.

Also pod cast Satellite Sisters daily (where I learned about this blog). Listen to it live on computer when I am alone in the office or just wait until later and transfer it to my iPod (Tivo for radio?)

@Molly, don't believe everything "Lies My Teach Told Me," says. Like every other book in the "Everything you know is a Lie" it's mostly opinion based on choice facts. Also, don't blame the Teachers for what they teach as they generally are following scripts created by the major book publishers which like to sugarcoat history to reach a wider audience.

Mass Market History FTW! If you like that book though I would really recommend the book "What If's? of American History."

Sorry for my speech but as a future History, or possibly Elementary school, teacher I am concerned with the plight of the American teacher.

Thanks,
