It states: "there are, however, no photographs of embryos or fetuses aborted either by medical or surgical means."

]]> Comment on A Visual Tour of the Dharma Initiative Stations: 7 Mysterious ‘Abandonments’ of the ‘Lost’ Island by Michael http://weburbanist.com/2008/02/13/a-visual-tour-of-the-dharma-initiative-7-mysterious-abandonments-of-the-lost-island/comment-page-1/#comment-123020 Michael Sat, 04 Jul 2009 13:25:34 +0000 http://weburbanist.com/2008/02/13/a-visual-tour-of-the-dharma-initiative-7-mysterious-abandonments-of-the-lost-island/#comment-123020 This map has a lot of flaws. First off - the Tailies walked to the fuselage camp with the ocean on their left side so unless they walked completely around the island that makes no sense. Just because there is a map on the blast door does not mean that THAT map is necessarily correct. ALL the stations should be closer together and MUCH closer to the beach camp. The island is supposed to be huge. Also just because someone SAYS something or a distance does not mean THEY are 100% accurate either. Why are the two beach camps so far apart? The season 3 opener shows that where Othersville compared to the two camps - all 3 should be repositioned. This map is definately nowhere near accurate - the link in one of the other comments shows a much better map. This map has a lot of flaws.
