Guessing at Lost

I’m no Lost fanatic, but I have been watching since it is an interesting show with lots of plot twists. After last night’s episodes, I’m guessing that the island must be some kind of fountain of youth or at least physically regenerates people. In past shows, Locke was stuck in a wheelchair and that one lady had terminal cancer but both are fine after being on the island.

The “others” must be really old but the island preserves them. They’re probably remnants of a science experiment that didn’t work out. They have communications with the outside world and have access to information so they are by no means unknown and stranded. They remain on the island by choice. Maybe it’s that strange magnetic device that is the key to the regenerative powers of the island? By living longer and being able to observe the fallacies of the outside world, the others feel like they’re morally superior living in their own utopia. Hence, the “we’re the good guys” sentiment.

All the plane crash survivors are probably descendants of those who left the island when they didn’t want to be part of the utopia.

The lady that Sun shot on the sailboat will be back. The island will heal her. Unless you die immediately, I think the island can preserve you.
