The Purge could NOT have been in 1992
I am pretty sure that the “Purge” could not possibly have occurred in 1992, as so many of the theorists have claimed.
If the Purge happened in 1992, that would mean it happened four years after the French woman, Rousseau, landed on the island and killed all the other members of her team and then got her baby stolen by the Others. (We have recently learned that the baby was actually stolen from her by Ben Linus himself – who was already a member of the Others at that time, supposedly.)
The 1992 "theory" seems to be based solely upon a vision that Locke has where Horace tells Locke that he has been dead for 12 years. Since most everyone assumes that Horace died during the Purge, they do the math where the year 2004 minus 12 years = 1992.
However, even if Locke's vision was true (which may or may not be the case), it is possible that Horace died in1992 but from something other than the Purge, such as time traveling (which, also causes the tell-tale nose-bleeding also associated with the gas-attack deaths). He was, after all, a mathematician, and could very well have been involved in the whole time-travel thing and could have died in 1992, more than four years after the Dharmas were killed off. There are other scenarios, as well. My point is that to base the date of the purge on a statement from Horace from a dream/vision that Locke has just does not hold water and is totally refuted by the hard facts.
Bottom line: I don't think it would have been possible for Ben to have been both a member of the Others/Hostiles (assigned to killing the French Chick - which must have occurred around 1988 - 16 years prior to the arrival of the survivors of flight 815) and then, for four years to pass, all that time still being part of the Dharma Initiative, and finally partake in the Purge. No way. The Purge could not have happened in 1992. It must have happened in 1988 or earlier.
Anyone want to discuss this?
