I uploaded a Windows Media version of it to Putfile for you, because I’m such a nice guy.
If that doesn’t work for you, I’ll reencode it as an .mpg and email it to you.
Here y’are. It’s definitely man-made, all right angles and such. Stupid kid. 
(I really should get to work now.)
I absolutely would murder two strangers to save my kid if I thought it would work. You’re right of course in that the Ohters cannot be trusted.
However, Michael is emotional and irrational by nature. Always has been. It’s not just since he went nuts; he’s always been a bit of an idiot. Idiocy is consistent for his character.
My guess is that Cindy-the-flight-attendant was one of the Others.
It would either take multiple sources or access to the manifest to find the two names that aren’t widely known. Everyone on the list has a correct given name, except for Kate, who’s down as “Kate” instead of Katherine. However, my clever husband points out that the marshal, who probably put her name down, always called her Kate. Presumably, she didn’t need a passport to get home (and if she had one, it might not have had her real name on it). Cindy could have seen the flight manifest.
Cindy also disappeared awfully quickly, and without a sound.
Way too much thought to put into something that doesn’t matter: How did the Others know that Sawyer was James Ford and Hurley was Hugo Reyes? It’s not too hard to make the leap from “Hugo Reyes” to “Hurley” when you have the names in front of you, especially if those are the only two names that don’t match up, but that’s not proof.
Everybody on the raft should know that Sawyer is not Hugo Reyes, since he read Hurley’s note and said, “Who the hell is Hugo Reyes?” Michael might have been able to tell them that during his imprisonment, if he ever said anything besides “Bring me my boy RIGHT NOW.”
Hurley told Jack that his name is Hugo, but probably no one else on the island knows his name unless a) they remember him from the news when he won the lottery or b) if Libby were sharp enough to register his name as well as his appearance in the hospital.
Locke somehow found out (how? from Hurley?) that Sawyer’s real name is James Ford. He sometimes calls him “James” in front of other ppl. Does anyone remember who’s been around to see that? I think Jack was, but I’m not sure who else.
This makes Jack and Hurley the only folks really likely to know both names. Can’t picture either of them willingly telling the others the names.
Easier answer: Cindy might have seen ppl’s IDs at check-in. When she met Sawyer later, she could put two and two together.
But since they’re both on the list, it probably doesn’t matter anyway.
I was entertaining the idea that there were at least two, if not several groups of “others” out there. At least until last night. Of course, that’s not to say there aren’t, it’s just that all the others we’ve seen were at the camp Walt was.
(Tangent that just came to mind: Why did Michael say he didn’t see Walt but KNEW that he was there, when, well, he saw Walt? What’s the purpose of that lie?)
At any rate, there were enough other folks on the island (Desmond and Russeau, the original Henry Gale (dead) and his wife (whereabouts unknown)) to support my theory that there could’ve been several tribes, making the Others more “everybody else” than an actual group. Like I said, that was more or less trumped in the end.
Maybe the mysterious Him is some sort of psychic mutant with who’s-your-daddy powers. He manages to get complete allegiance from anyone who can see him as their father, and it’s easiest when the father is dead. When Jack thought he saw his dead father on the island, that’s who he really saw.
Of course, this would mean that for the Others to really get to Waaaaaaaaalt, Michael would have to die. But at least then, no one would be able to pretend *Lost * isn’t science fiction.
“Who’s Your Daddy” sounds like the perfect name for the next episode featuring more of Claire’s backstory.
Actually, one thing that keeps nagging at me is that there seem to be an awful lot of OTHER people on this island for Danielle Rousseau, who’s been hanging out in the forest for 16 years, to never have actually seen them.
In her first episode, she told Sayid that she’d never seen “the Others”, but she’d heard them whispering…
Of course, after 16 years, she’s probably just as good as they are at moving around the forests quietly. You’d think in 16 years she might have spotted at least one of them.
Oh, until now, of course – she captured Pseudo-Henry. But before that – bupkis.
Nice. And on the subject of episode titles, how about an episode featuring a backstory involving Sawyer and how he was once trying to pull his usual con on a lovely married woman, and this time was caught in bed with her by the jealous husband (before he could actually get the con going). The title would be…
“Caught in Annette”
Well, Michael is now irredeemable…and since he’s being followed around by the Yellow Lab of Death I may finally get my wish…

Yeah, I’ve said the same thing. Especially since she is actively seeking them out in order to get Alex back. I still think there is more to CFL than meets the eye. I hope we see her backstory next season (knowing these writers, it’ll probably be Season 10).
“Caught in Annette.” Good one.
She could be full of shit. She could also understand that on the island you’ve got “Those Hanso guys” and “The Others”. 
Joe
“Oh, you folks have been calling them the Others? Oh, those are the Hanso guys, yeah I’ve seen them around a lot. The Others I meant were the voices I keep hearing. You know… the Easter Bunny and the Great Pumpkin. And I still have never found any eggs on Easter…”
Wow, what service! Thanks.
Really? I wasn’t a regular viewer last season–when did we learn that she actively seeks them out?
Don’t answer this if you think it’s too much of a hijack, but I find myself curious - how many innocent, uninvolved people would you kill? One? Two? A dozen? A hundred? Would you kill other people’s children?
Continuing the Sawyer-given Nickname Catalog: Pippi Longstocking, the Grape Ape, and Captain Ay-Rab. How many is that now?
Jorge Garcia made me a bit teary last week, and did it again with this ep.
I am now creeped out by the very mention of the words “The Room.”
As far as I can tell, there’s nothing new on the Hanso main site… any word?
Dude. Broke my heart.
Oh, God, please no !!!
We get a double episode, a season climax and it is going to be about “My BAY-BEEE !!!”.
She has my vote for most irritating character in the history of television.
I even think she is more annoying then Michael.
When Zeke told them to get ‘her’ I was expecting CFL to show up and then my head was going to explode.
And for the record, I’m trying hard to keep a straight face with my dad. He’s convinced that the “others” were also on the jet. I tried to explain it to him, but he wasn’t having anything of it. He’s just a wee bit confused…
