You may well 'get that' but you were masking it well saying we're not made of EM and that EM fields are around us but not in us.

The actor's theory on traveling from the island was something about him being the guardian and allowed to leave for specific purposes... kinda weak though. |

I don't see why it's a big deal that Jacob can travel off the island. I think how is a bigger mystery than why.

OK, so given that the "mother" had been on the island seemingly a long time... and she speaks Latin to Claudia...
This means either a)she is from Italy circa 300BC or later b)she had extensive contact with Romans, enough to learn the language.. which leads to more possibilities as well... 1)other Romans had visited the island within the last few hundred years 2)she had a means to travel or at least view/hear other places 3)she had some "power" that allowed her to know languages if the answer is b) 2) then I retract my posit that she is also a smokey since being smokey seems to chain you to the island... UNLESS smokey is only chained to the island when a"guardian" won't let him leave... and if she was both guardian and smokey, she could do whatever the hell she wanted... but it's more likely she was powerful or had access to power that manifests in another form.... using THAT to fill holes and burn villages and possibly travel the world (or view via lighthouse or other device) on occasion like Jacob did. |

Solid post, AustinChief. I could get on board with that. I think either explanation works. Either she was a Smoke monster or she tapped into the island's properties. Either way works in different ways, and I like both ideas for different reasons.

and IF she could pull the view/travel stuff that Jacob later does... then he could have been on the island for an untold number of years... possibly she is egyptian and came with the builders of the statue... which given that the statue is Taweret .. it probably dates her in the range of 2800BC to 1000BC

The last shot of the series will be Kate waking up to find Jack and Sawyer in the shower.

Furthermore, she was already a murderer and whacked in the head. IF she had the ability to become a Smoke Monster at anytime, why wouldn't she want to make everything "cease to exist"? |

Yes she is whacked but clearly whacked in a "killing to save the greater good is a-ok" way... |

I think she was a person that was somehow bamboozled into becoming the guardian of the Cave, just as Desmond was bamboozled into punching numbers into a computer. Maybe Desmond has been bamboozled again and will end up as the Island protector. |

Young MIB was a good guy, didn't like being lied to and wanted off the island... appears as if most of the others liked him. Same thing with Hurley.

Check out the back stories and similarities of Ben and John... saw a post on DarkUFO that was pretty interesting.
Bottom line... there are about 50 different ways to slice the ending, and most will be good.
