LOST!

[jthornton]

About the 300 dead people that they (or Ben or whoever!) had to find to re-create the plane crash -- I can't remember the details, but didn't Ben previously unleash a deadly gas that killed a lot of people in his village? Again, I can't remember if the reason was given, but I do remember that the survivors had gas masks and there were a lot of dead people laying around. I may be way off base (again I can't remember the reason the people were killed), but do you think they were the people used to re-create the plane crash? This show really makes she scratch my head a lot!

That was a while ago, when Ben had met the "other" (that guy whose name I can't remember, but who mysteriously looks the same age as he did years ago, when Ben was a child). Ben helped kill off the Dharma initiative folks, and the "others" (the ones in the gas masks)took over the village.

I doubt they were the bodies used, unless they were kept in cold storage for some reason (eeew!), since that seemed to have happened several years before the plane crashed.
