although the slaughterhouse-five reference also ties in with the consciousness time jumping thing. The main character of that story is ‘unstuck’ in time and lives his life in jumbled fashion.

I finally found the Vonnegut reference. It is in season 4 ‘Meet Kevin Johnson’

When Michael is sitting in his apartment and tries to shoot himself in the head and the gun doesn’t go off you can hear it in the background on the TV. It is some kind of quiz game show and you hear
…the writer of slaughterhouse-five. Then a girl answers Kurt Vonnegut then they ask and for the bonus which book …. and then I cant make out the rest. I bet its Cat’s Cradle though.

I should have done the research before my last post, but they are different women.

Ms. Klugh (sounds like Clue) is played by April Grace http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/lost/images/2/2f/AprilGrace.jpg

The nun lady is played by Aisha Hinds http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/lost/images/e/ef/AishaHinds.jpg

They do look similar, though.

Holdem Caulfield: The woman who talks to Michael identifies herself as ‘Miss Clue’

Here’s a comparison of the two women: http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/4674/missclue.jpg

Not the greatest shots, so it’s hard to tell.

In the first season during the flashback with Jin where he goes to talk to that guy for Sun’s dad (he is the owner of a factory I believe), the Korean guy’s daughter (the one that is the original owner of Sun’s dog) is watching T.V. Guess who is on the T.V.

…Hurley!

i love the whole “six degrees of separation”, its also great to think that every meeting is part of some grand design. i like to think that the choices we make (or think we make) affect the people that we meet in our lives(or the way we meet people).
if you sit there thinking about choices that you have made in your life (like i do on occasion) you can always find strange connections to people. it can be that you meet friend A through work, but on reflection, you would have met them earlier through a course that you would have taken at a certain college, had you not picked the one closer to home…
these connections in lost are not (in my opinion) completely down to people’s choices (or “free will”) but maybe a pre-determined pattern.

One connection which I am not sure about it, which is not listed on lostpedia is…
Remember at the end of season 1 the lady that asks Michael about walt, she asks if Michael is Walt’s biological father etc… arranges the first meeting, i believe her name was Mrs. Hope.
Anyways, I could almost swear in the beginning of the ‘Cost of Living’ episode when it is back in Mr Eko’s childhood, it shows them stealing some food and they get busted by a nun. then the next scene they are in the church and she tell’s Mr Eko to go to confessional and to leave his brother for the time being… I think that Lady is Mrs. Hope. It is very hard to tell because she is wearing glasses, but she looks a lot alike, she has the same tone and pitch voice, just a different accent. Anyways, if it is her, then it would mean she is not aging also. can anyone confirm this?
