I noticed the same of the hole, and also that nothing is growing in it, unlike the way things would actually be in a jungle. Made me wonder whether that was significant or simply a matter of set dressing.

As Sigmund Freud would say- "Sometimes a hole is just a hole."

Re: Extended life span

Ben's father seemed to have aged normally.

Ben has aged as well. It could be only the original inhabitants (the hostiles) are ageless.

If Ben's mom can appear inside the sonic fence, I'm going to have to reconsider whether the smoke monster is all the ghosts we've been seeing all the time.

Why? The smoke creature was ground level when you see it chasing Kate and Juliette, so that is why it ran into the fence. But I don't see why it can't just fly over it without any problem. Heck, Kate climbed over it with no problem.

I kind of see Dennis Hopper in the image:

I kind of see John Ratzenberger

 

[Lhorgrim]

Now that you mention it, I've never seen Dennis Hopper and John Ratzenberger together at the same time. Coincidence?

I wonder if they will ever explain or give a reason for this

Remember this back at the end of Season 1? Is there a purpose to it? Is there a connect to that and the smoke monster? Is it just the others clever way of drawing out the lostaways? Is it a lure to keep the real smoke monster away? Did the others even have anything to do with it? If you remember correctly, there were no footprints in the beach around that flame.

I chalked it up to a diversion by Rousseau to get the baby. She is an excellent tracker and can easily cover where she has been.

If we see Jacob dancing, we'll know for sure.

...I read something a while back where one of the EP's said that Michael and Wilt will be back on the show at some point.

I am aware of that, I am aware an offer was made. But the actor who played Walt (Malcolm David Kelley) is growing and aging at a normal rate, which is much faster than the time line of the show. The actor who played Michael (Harold Perrineau) has apparently turned down a chance to return to the show.

So, as a way of explaining their disappearance, I think it will be revealed that Benry sent them to their deaths. That would be keeping with who and what Benry is as a man and a character.

I still want to know about the relationship between the Others and whatever force or group on the Mainland that keeps them supplied. If it is Dharma, then Dharma is run by morons.
