I've heard people say that the time at which this show is taking place may not necessarily be in the present, in fact, I even think one of the producers may have suggested that? Not sure.Anyway, I was thinking and it must take place some time around now because of the fact that Ana-Lucia mentioned the fact that one of the Others that infiltrated their camp in "The Other 48 Days" didn't have a cell phone...don't know if there are any other 'clues' anyone may have picked up?
Or, does anybody know for sure what year this show takes place in?
If I had to guess, I'd say right now, but you can never be completely sure.
