South of Barracks?
Edit
How do we know this, it would mean the Beach camp is on the North of the Island..... From what we've heard, it actually seems like the Flats are East of the Barracks and the Pearl and the Camp, since Ben mentions the path to the radio tower as being North. --Sauron18 22:43, 28 May 2007 (PDT)
- What we know of the Island is that the Beach camp is at the south end of the Island, the pearl is to the immediate north and the barracks is further north yet. The map itself would indicate that the radio tower is south of Pascal flats along with the barracks. The map provides a north-south coast-to-coast view of the island. I can't example Ben saying that the tower is north. Reversing the orientation of the island north-south would create problems in that there are compass bearings from earlier in the show that suggest the barracks has to be north of the beach camp.

- Yeah, Ben's map and words cause all kinds of problems, but he definitely says the tower is North of the Pascal flats, putting the camp on the western shore of the Island, with the Pearl, Barracks, and Flats to the East.--Sauron18 11:15, 30 May 2007 (PDT)
- I looks to me like Ben's map was drawn with North being at the bottom and South being at the top. I am going by the picture on this page with the line to the radio tower. Which would put the radio tower to the east.--A Dawg 14:43, 2 July 2008 (PDT)
Blaise Pascal
Edit
I've added the Blaise Pascal reference from the Through the Looking Glass (Enhanced Version) subtitles. I beleive that this source is canon enough to validate it being in the main article rather than the theories. Interestingly, Pascal was connected to a "miracle" involving his neice who had some sort of horrible disease involving her eyes, but was then healed by a blessed thorn. This cure of this apparently incurable condition was investigated and declared to be a genuine miracle by experts of the time. read about it here on WP. Now this event could be conneted to the themes Eyes, Miracles and Healing - But is this reading too much into it?--TechNic|talk|conts 09:07, 2 February 2008 (PST)
