While my speculation on the GMan is just that, speculation, I feel that he is some form of interdimensional being simply because the vortagons had to "hold him" in place using some kind of energy field, but it didn't look like a force field. As for Mossman and the other main characters, odds are they could have taken a train (we don't know where Mossman is exactly.  Probably high on a mountain).  Or they might have some kind of air transport.

See? This is my point exactly, once again, after promises of answers, we are left with none, but simply more questions.

At some point Valve have got to stop doing this, or the games are going to stop being made before the even get close to explaining the story.

If they gave us all the answers, then we wouldn't learn anything.

I think Episode 2 will raise far more questions and it may answer one or two but the third should answer alot of them (they did say this was a trilogy right?).
I doubt they'll reveal alot about g-man but mossman, breen, the combine and other specific questions should be answered.

While I don't expect them to really answer the big questions, they've got to give the player more than they have before too long or even the most hardcore are going to get tired of the confusion & speculation.

Well, we'll see how long it'll last.  My guess is that episode two will give you alot of nice info, like what that message was, what the "location" is, and who the advisors are.
