Don’t trust this man to do arithmetic

OK, so after watching the latest episode of Lost, I was disappointed to find that the timer in the hatch is 108 minutes, not 10800 seconds. 10800 is an interesting number because it’s exactly 3 hours long expressed in seconds. 108 was random.

At least until a co-worker told me that The Numbers add up to 108.

And I’d done the math in my head earlier and gotten it wrong.
