He lists, as one of the top 10 moments of his life, his father(who wasn't Desmond btw)* teaching him how to swim.

He has no problem swimming down to the underwater station.

Maybe what we are viewing of our Islanders is not a single Time-line but several.....which would not only explain how Charlie could Swim in Season 3 but not in Season 1. It could explain lots of things actually; like how the sound of the smoke monster seems familier to Rose or how Sawyer, after getting back from Prison Island had no recollection of Nikki and Paulo.

*Although, it has been reported that just before Charlie leaps into the pool a childs voice can be heard in the background saying "C'mon Desmond, C'mon".....don't know if that means anything or not

I do remember that episode but I didn't link A and B together. Intriguing.

Charlie's "father" (i.e. who he grew up knowing as his father) might not be his real father at all.

I'm wondering when it will click for Jack that Aaron is his nephew.

Who is the chick "Ellie" that held the gun on Daniel (when he was going to disarm the bomb) that he kept saying looked very familiar?
