Ken's become quite the Lost philosopher, almost as much as he is on LOTR stuff. I keep trying to get him to post in this thread, but he still hasn't.

I found this, and it made me giggle...

A friend pointed out to me that both Ben and John touched the donkey wheel. Maybe that has something to do with them staying in "real" time...?

Aha! That's what they have in common. Good call.

They have several things in common.

Yes, but that's something A) that they have in common B) that the 5 who DID time travel don't share and C) is linked directly to getting on/off the island. Definitely the best candidate I've seen so far for why the other 5 would time travel but not them.

The O5 were not supposed to leave The Island. Ben and Locke were.

If Locke was in "current time" when he was in NYC, it wasn't late 2007/early 2008. NY got rid of the Statue of Liberty license plates in 2001.

Then that was an editorial mistake/decision because that is the correct timeline as presented (crashed in '05, 3 years passed).
