That's not splitting hairs, it's actually an important point.

I don't blame Hurley at all on this. If Ben came for me, I'd run screaming.

Very good point....although I am puzzled why he decided to ignore the advice of Ana-Lucia and turn himself into the police?

How is surrendering to the police the opposite of going with Ben anyway...wouldnt the opposite of going with Ben be staying put?

But for some reason, when Hurley takes stupid risks/acts (seemingly) irrationally, it usually works out well.

He's regularly ignored his visions of dead people.

True, but then Hurley seems to find comfort in being locked up.

I guess after seeing the look on Ben's face when Ms. Hawking told him he had 70 hours Hurley turining himself into the police may have just been the opposite of what Ben wanted regardless whether or not it was the opposite of what he said.

Although, with Ben, one never knows....after all, he told Locke not to blow up the submarine in order to get Locke to blow up the submarine
