Correct. The book was The Survivors of the Chancellor by Jules Verne. It's about a ship that's left in poor shape after a massive storm, and over the course of time the survivors start going a little crazy: one person jumps off the ship in the midst of circling sharks. This could be because the person who committed suicide by hanging himself was subsequently cannibalized by some of the remaining survivors. So yeah: it's a feel-good tale. You are a fount of fascinating information. Nah, Wikipedia's the source: I can just read and regurgitate the info really fast. ETA: Oh, and I'm anal enough to have rewound to see the book title during the first commercial break. ;D

Thanks for all the answers. I'm going to take my gobsmacked mind to bed.
Wow. Lost is kicking creative ass this year.

So they're saying on TWOP that the date on the tombstone is 9/22/04 - the date of the crash. So that means what? He dies sometime in the rest of the season (or I guess with the way Lost is Jin could still be on the show by the end of the run in flashback time) I guess they had to put the date as the same as the crash so it really doesn't mean anything. Date of the crash does seem to indicate a cover up of some kind.

At the very least it's in keeping with the story the Oceanic 6 have been telling: that only 8 survived initially, with 2 of those dying shortly thereafter.

Nice continuity with Juliet all beat up.
*sigh* great. Mistrust and distrust going on about the "leaving the island" thing.
"I don't trust you" but you trust her to give you vitamins?
I think Dr. Bae is a Dharma baby thief.
"What's wrong?" "Lock-itiis" I think.
FREAKING PANDA THIEF!
Jin, you need another panda a lot less than you need to get to the hospital...
I'm guessing we'll find out what the panda symbolizes for them later on, prolly this episode?
Oh, damn. Juliet is pulling Doctor Rank.
DAMMIT, JULIET!!!! JESUS!! WHY the HELL did you do that, so she'd hate you for a GOOD reason?
Oh. Practical reasons. To cut her assistance out from under her. Still a bastard move.

I think Bernard will be good company for an angry, cuckolded Jin who wants to forgive his wife. Leastwise, I hope he wants to.
Revealing a secret. Bernard at the least has really needed someone to talk with.
"Because it was the right thing to do" as Locke is a murderer.
"make good choices" and you catch the fish.
"We must be the good guys, huh?" Awww..
It's Doctor Freaky!
uh... okay, I guess Zoe has a fairly short role on this show. Why did she jump overboard with the chains, like Marley's ghost? Someone tell her to?
Captain Gault. More Ayn Rand stuff.

So Zoe jumped overboard because of Space Madness?
Charles Widmore! Woohoo!
*does the dance of "I was right"*
Black box from 815? yep.
"Along with all 324 dead passengers" So it was xeroxed!
Oh, no. Staged. God knows. Occam's razor is not a reliable tool in this world.
Benry faked the airplane? With all the corpses? How?
"Stop you any way I could"
Huh. Juliet could leave, except that this is supposedly a desert island.
Yeah, I suppose it puts her dick move into perspective to view it that way. "Leave the camp and hang out with Locke and die, die, die"
Okay, so who's the suit in the doorway? just a Not-Jin, or someone sinister? And where is Jin (other than retrieving pandas?)
So there are a few roaches, and someone's blown his brains out against the wall...
Uh.. Johnson looks kinda familiar.
Kevin Johnson. Huh.
"Nice to meet you, Kevin" HAH! which is Sayid's way of saying "wtf?"

Aw! Jin's back!
in more way than one.
I think I love this freaky little reluctant mobster.
"Or, I won't go to Locke's camp with you, and will just continue following cheerfully and baffledly with you, my wife, the way Bernard does with Rose."
Bet yer awful glad that you can tell him that the baby is his, Sun.
Man, his character has grown so much since I hated him in "House of the Rising Sun"
So they don't know Jin is alive?What the hell? Oh. he's working, not doing things for his own baby.
Oh, FRAK, That was a flashBACK with Jin having a flashFORWARD.
You LOST bastards!!!!!!
Hugo!!!!! Man, he looks GOOD in a suit.
So is this before he went crazy, or after?
"Go see him" Dammit. Jin's dead. Dammit dammit dammit.
Okay, this last scene is wrecking me to little pieces.

So, that scene with Jin buying the Panda seems not quite right. Wouldn't he have been recognized by the store clerk as one of the Oceanic 6? But he wasn't. Does this mean anything? Yeah, something about that whole scene just seemed off. I wonder if Sun's scenes are a flash forward, and Jin's are a flashback to the birth of another baby altogether? Oh, I hate you. I wish I had been watching with you so I didn't get caught so blindsided by it because I wasn't noticing and stuff.

And dammit all, when I heard that Zoƫ Bell was gonna be on an episode of LOST, I was all looking forward to her being a regular or something. I certainly didn't expect her to have only two words and then plonk herself overboard. Ah well.
*goes and cues up Deathproof*

Date of the crash does seem to indicate a cover up of some kind. Think about it. Everybody was declared dead in the "cover up", leaving their families to grieve, right? Isn't it logical to assume that the families made grave sites for their loved ones, whether or not the bodies were brought up from the ocean? So, that grave and date are probably the result of the families of Jin and probably Sun making graves for them because they were told they died. The date makes perfect sense if you look at it that way. Why make another grave? So, Jin could still be alive and on the island. I doubt it, but you never know with these guys.
