So.. after the "rocket" incident in The Economist.. and now with what we have seen in The Constant, are you more confused or more enlightened?

Well, at first with all the crazy stuff happening, I'd completely forgotten about the time delay in The Economist. But after looking at some of the posts here, I think the time-delaying bubble around the island theory makes perfect sense.

I think that I'm more enlighten. I don't think that time is running at a different rate on the Island. From what I gather it seems like when they leave the Island or get back to the Island that is where the time is slower. My theory is that when they cross the "barrier" that time gets suspended, but it only happens at that point. I'm not sure if I'm making sense.
