I had a good look at the logo found everywhere in episodes 201 and 202. Obviously this is the logo of the corporation behind the mysterious ongoings in the plot.
After trying to decode the letters DHARMA for a while, i finally stumbled across the name's significance. If you add up the numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42, you get 108. You'll find this number in several places in episodes 201 and 202, like graffiti or the counter. If you decode the letters DHARMA using A=1, B=2 etc, you get 4 8 1 18 13 1.
BUT the letter R is inverted, so it's 4 8 1 81 13 1. Add them up, what do you get? You guessed it, 108
Of course, this gives us MORE hidden significance with no answers whatsoever AS USUAL, but personally i like finding out these things just for the hell of it. It takes effort to weave all those hidden messages into a show the way Lost does, and that alone makes me appreciate it even more.
Oh, and yeah i also realised that the pattern in the logo (all those lines) is suspiciously unsymmetrical and probably encodes yet another message, but i'm not gonna bother with that one, for my sanity's sake.
Your thoughts?
