Thank you both, I now have a very clear understanding. Soooo (just as a "what if") if the writers of "Lost" write themselves into a corner and don't satisfy the fans at the end, someone else can Reboot the series as a movie or miniseries and totally ignore the facts that have gone before, with a new set of storylines.
I hope I haven't just given them an idea.....
