Shut your eyes and you'll burst into flames

In yesterday's Ask Ausiello column at TV Guide online, Michael Ausiello is asked:

Question: In my dream last night, I ran into you on the street and asked you who was the 5th and final Cylon. I don't remember your answer. Can you remind me? — Laura

Ausiello: I said, "Shut your eyes and you'll burst into flames."

This line is from the memorable scene where Agent Cooper is first introduced to the enigmatic Log Lady in the fifth episode of David Lynch's brilliant Twin Peaks. So does Michael's answer mean anything, does it have any context? Does the hybrid's babble mean anything? Watch the episode online, decide for yourself. The log lady makes her entrance in the fourth act.
