Omg I was watching Lost with my Hubby and he reconized the battery that Hurley got from Danielle.
its called a "SINCGARS" ( single channel ground and airborne radio system) Battery. Military uses it and he checked up on it and it was orginally fielded in 1994. He said there was no way that Danielle had it before then unless she was testing it which is very unlikely. Soooo That sets us a time period which it has to be later than 2010.
Unless the props people just picked out any old battery without considering that. I don't think they realize how much we scrutinize everything on the show.
Can't be 2010 because they talk about how the Red Sox will never win the World Series and they just won it Oct 27, 2004.
So this means they took the flight no later than Oct 26, 2004.
I think the writers threw this in to give us a timeline, knowing that it is no later than present day.
It's present day. Or at least that's when they went missing. On the fake Driveshaft website set up by the creators of this one, it says that Charlie went missing on September 22, 2004.

Oh that is just too weird. Sept 22 was Bilbo and Frod Baggin's Birthday..and the day Frodo left the Shire. I know that has nothing to do with this but any Tolkien fan would spot that in a minute.
time could be distorted on the island too....well im sure they didnt just throw it in. *And the screen play was written before thre red sox won....perhaps they didnt want to take it out oooor they didnt hear about the win if they were in australia, just a thought.
IF they wanted to keep people guessing the year they would have used the Cubs instead.....They filmed that episode after the Sox had won the world series
Stop looking so hard! Christ, the prop guy needed a battery that looked old, and they grabbed that. Assuming you are correct, it's just a plot gaffe. Relax.
