    The answers are there, not to everything of course, but a lot of what you are curious about has been answered.

    For example.

    The polar bears - Dharma was experimenting with them and they got loose.

    Remember the cages in season 3 that Sawyer and Kate were locked in...when Mr Friendly told Sawyer it took him longer than the bears to figure out how to get a fish cookie...

    Dharma found the island like all the other people who ended up on the island.

    They were drawn there by Jacob.

    That's just two, there are other answers, but you have fun with your bamboo
    But why polar bears? Not only are they more difficult to capture, they're considerably more difficult to transport and even more difficult to keep a cold weather animal on a tropical island. Because of their thick layer of blubber, polar bears actually overheat even in frigid temperatures, which is why they often grab a mouthful of snow or lie flat on ice.

    It would be the equivalent of wearing eight layers of clothing and then trying to jog a marathon.

    Their transparent fur would also make them poor hunters and speaking of which, what would they eat on a tropical island once free? There are no seals, nor would there be large enough fish in shallow waters to sustain them. Boar are a possibility, but the nutritional changes would probably make the bears sick more than it would nourish them.

    Also, if the only route to the island was via submarine, are we to believe that Dharma stuffed multiple polar bears into a submarine? It literally is impossible.

    There are more practical animals that Dharma would have chosen. If they wanted an animal that was similar to a human, there are monkeys, rats and even pigs (which were already on the island to begin with).

    They also gave a strong impression that the bears had been free for some time, so I would have expected them to die off long before the 815 survivors arrived.

    Jacob drew people to the island, but at the same time, it was stated that Jacob's way was to not allow people to leave, or if they did leave, make it nigh impossible to return. Setting up a submarine trade route would be incredibly difficult. Again, there's no purpose to it either.

    So while the answers are kinda there, they make no sense and it is akin to stating that the moon is made of cheese that was thrown into the sky by a giant cow who eats part of the cheese wheel every day as a means of explaining the existence and phases of the moon. It's utter rubbish and nonsense.

    And please forgive me for going off topic (and for the use of a conjunction at the start of a sentence). I initially did not realize that there was a lost topic in general and would like to continue discussion there, thank you.

    Buy season 6 DVDs aug 24th because Walt will be answered in those, the writers are putting all the smaller questions in the final DVD set that everyone wants answered.

    If you hated the ending your forgetting that everything that happened up until the end was about Jack, it was about redemption and how he found his constant(kate) and got past his fathers hate(hence why he had a son in the purgatory storyline)

    Noble am I right?
    Until it gets me laid, it hasn't lived up to my expectations.
    This could take a while

    To be honest does it really matter?

    I mean seriously people who got caught up in the mystery are forgetting that the creaters of this show wanted the audience to love the characters not the mystery(yes those were great) but ultimately over the last 6 years if you didnt love Kate, Jack, Saywer etc.. then you missed the point of the show, get it?

    I'm happy with the ending and have enjoyed the ride

    Did everyone else miss the fact that Noble just confirmed Geronimo Jackson in addition to DriveShaft? Win.

    EDIT: Nevermind. IGN already covered it. My google-fu is not strong today. I feel like a nerd for hearing "fake 70s band" and immediately going, oh! you mean Geronimo Jackson! though

    Loved the Finale, but that's besides the point.

    Dharma Lady? Friggin' awesome. Will buy if/when it gets moved to the PS3.

    You All Everybody though? Meh.
