Hey, it’s Lost. Every day is ‘Anything Can Happen Day’ (The real question is is it true that whatever happened happened.)

I don’t really think Richard is Locke’s dad anymore myself…

I think Alpert is Black Rock’s 1st mate (whose log Widmore bought).

I think it is fair to assume that a number of similarities (names, numbers, etc) have been thrown in just to confuse us.

Okay, so let’s assume this is all true. To what end does this become necessary. Or is it just a ‘soap opera’ tactic?
So Theresa falls up the stairs was Faradays girl also? Is Dave also Libby’s husband Dave. Is Charlie Hume, also Charlie Pace and Charles Widmore all in one? Is Charlotte Lewis also Charlotte Malkin? Annie is Katherine Anne? Or is Annie, Anna Lucia?

If this is true, then they have gone out of their way to make reasonable people believe it couldn’t be true.

i wonder if you miraculously regained the use of your legs by landing on a crazy island, brutha. no? hmmm it seems as though your universe and the lost universe have different rules and that there are few “coincidences” in lost.

Locke is only 7 years older than Ben. Locke was born in 1956. Ten year old Ben came to the island around 1973. You know my mother has the same name as my friends mother. I wonder if that makes us brothers, brutha.

Aha, same mother. You could be right. There are definitely some family relationships that we need to find out about in season 6. The show somehow seems to be about lost parents and children (beside losing yourself in various senses).

Jack & Claire don’t really look very much alike do they?

Also, by no means did I mean to imply that I think Richard Alpert is Ben’s dad, b/c I don’t. I think we all saw enough of his dad in season 5. I think they may have the same mother Emily… It’s just a thought…
