i had a thought about the ending...when the soldier got sucked into the mountain side.
did anyone get the reference to the iridium (sp?) layer? they specifically showed it more than once.
(my science may be off here - please correct me if i'm wrong...)
i think the iridum layer is a "ring around the world". it's found throughout the continents, at approximately the same depth. the kicker is...this material is not found naturally on the earth, but is found on comets or asteroids or whatever. they think the comet that caused this layer is the same thing that wiped out the dino's.
if that is what the producers were intending, i think it's a pretty cool tie-in.
