Hey Ian,

First of all I have to say I feel in love with your acting skills when I saw you in Rules of Attraction.* You did an outstanding job in that film.* I was so glad to see you on Smallville, knowing you were still around.* I was watching it with my roommates, and I jumped out of my chair yelling, "It's Paul from Rules of Attraction!!* You know guys, Ian Somerhalder."

It's been a little while, to my knowledge, since you've done a TV series.* How is this matching up to other projects you've done in the past?* What makes Lost different?
