The Button
I don't know why I just thought of this, or why no one else has posted about this (or have they?) but remember a few weeks ago when the mp3 of Walt talking backwards came online, he said "Press the button -- the button is bad" or something like that? Well, we now have our button don't we.
So, let's assume Walt/The Others have some knowledge about this button that "needs" to be pressed every 108 minutes. That would lead us to believe that Desmond/Dharma have a deeper connection with The Others first of all and second of all, maybe Dharma is the entity that needed a kid (The French Woman's, Claire's and now Michael's). Possibly, someone young to continually push the button? I don't know. Anyway, I hadn't read anything connecting Walt's statement to "Orientation" so I figured I would throw that out there.
If someone else has already mentioned this then, well, nice head me.

He says "Press the button, no button's bad," or at least that's what my chinky ears hear.
That's what I hear too... and what the specialist that Access Hollywood had on a few weeks ago to determine what he says had thought too.
Chang said 'chinky'.
Teehee.
Did I really just reference Access Hollywood as a source?
Oh, Meredith.
Y'know, sometimes I hear "chingchangchung" instead of normal Engrish. Can't fight the genes.
I can't believe Access H'wood had a "specialist" on to analyze LOST. Talk about a "slow news day" for ol AH. Did they intercut it with old footage of Tom and Katie -- ahem, KATE?
First I've heard of this interpretation - I always thought he was saying "the button IS bad". Why would Walt be encouraging to "press the button, no button's bad" when he always told Locke to avoid going down into the hatch?
Whatever it is, I'm assuming its due to Walt's general psychic ability rather than info that he got from The Others.
Who's to say that's the actual Walt? And even if it is, who's to say he hasn't been brainwashed or convinced otherwise?
(by the way - I love how Vincent "led" Shannon to Walt. I'm the loony guy who's been saying there's something with Vincent ever since he was the first thing Jack saw on the island) ...but Chang, maybe you're right, or maybe Shannon's just seeing things herself...
Yeah, there's something up with Vincent. He spent a bunch of days sans Walt, so he's probably seen more of the island than anyone else has, including Locke. Now we wait for the episode where he talks...
sun speaks english... walt speaks backwards... jin speaks english.... vincent speaks people
my head, it spins.
And soon Sawyer will speak blacktalk, Michael will speak gooktalk, Shannon will speak without using the words "like" or "as if," Hurley will stop speaking foodtalk, and the monster will make some more mechanical sounds and eat some more useless people.
LOST... close captioned for the racially impaired.
