LOST-1/29-Jughead

With this episode of LOST, it seems the writers are taking some time to flush out the history of the Island, which I think is needed and gives the writers two more seasons to get the Oceanic 6 back to the Island.
I finally thought of where I've seen Charlotte before:

• Remember when Jack and Sayid were in the Hatch in Season 2, and Sayid said that the last time he had seen something covered in so much cement was Chernobyl? Now the is an H-Bomb on the Island that needs to be covered in cement to stop it from exploding. Coincidence?
• I find it funny that Desmond named his son after Charlie.
• With the revelation that Widmore was once an Other, it brings up the questions of what happened that made him leave? What happened that made him want to kill all the other Others? Numerous questions.
• I also find it funny that the Others refer to themselves as "Others."
• Desmond has to go to Los Angeles to find Faraday's mom. Who is in Los Angeles? Mrs. Hawking.
• Now that we are again showed that Alpert is ageless, I want to know if he has four toes. I wonder if the time-travelers will be brought back to the time where the four-toed statue is still standing.
  
• Does future Alpert remember running into Locke and Faraday, and if he does, why has he not said anything?
