I wanted to open up discussion about the map, since I believe it has a whole slew of clues. What we know is that the map was started by Radzinsky, and continued by Kelvin. We don't know if Desmond has put any work into it. Interesting to note that there is printed words in English, and cursive words in Latin. One set by Radzinsky and one by Kelvin, maybe?

Here are two pictures of the unadulterated map:

Interesting... the Hydra/Scorpion hatch still isn't on that map.

Makes me wonder about the validity of the second island that Benry & Friends are on.

Makes sense to me, it's on the other island and Radzinsky only knows about this one. The other island would have to be viewable from someplace within a 54 minute walk of the Swan

... or a 45 minute sprint! (Assuming that Radzinsky can run as fast as REDGUARD!!!!)

Why 54 minutes?

108 minutes to push the button, so 54 out and 54 back.

But now that I think about it, one watches the button and the other goes searching. We already know that Kelvin went off and left Desmond behind

54 minutes one way.
54 minutes back.
= 108 minutes.

Back in time to press the button.

Come on Snoochface!! Did you forget the coffee this morning?

Clearly I haven't had enough.
