The numbers, The numbers are BAD” Hurley

— carriedamien

I know this doesn’t sound like much but it just crossed my mind today.

In season two, with the Hatch, if you recall the timer on the wall that counts down begins at 108 minutes. Now take the numbers 4,8,15,16,23,42, add them together, it equals 108. Is there any meaning to this? Or is it just coincidence? Does anyone know if the number 108 was brought up in any other episodes other than those refering to the Hatch or the Countdown?

    well i heard that each number is a code for some type of humanity destroying thing, ex. 4 could be drought or illness or 8 could equal flood. i dont recall where i nheard it but i heard it somewhere and i heard dharma was re searching the numbers

    You really ought to search before posting, especially about stuff from seasons 1-3.

    Old news. Sorry. A little research goes a long way…you can read hundreds of theories about what the numbers mean. No need to repost them here.

    (not that I have never posted something that has been talked about at length)

    Carrie, While the season is on hiatus, it is more than appropriate to bring up information from earlier seasons, although some good information can be found on Lostpedia as mentioned, as well as DarkUfo, which is a great source as well.

    It does NOT give anyone the right to be rude to you, or think they are the Dictators of this site! Apologies for the rude remarks. Not everyone is so pretentious around here!
