Thanks to Thirty-Fiver for the heads up on this small post from Terry O'Quinn.
Liler: hey terry, must say Locke is my fave character in LOST i'm a huge fan and i'm currently working on a youtube vid, recapping Locke's story, should be done soon but anyway on to the question, in the recent episode Namaste Locke wasn't shown during the crash of flight 316, had he already been ressurrected but not appeared in the episode or is there something else behind it? thanks
Terry O'Quinn: Something else
