一意孤行

一个叫Brillo的兄弟编造了一套Genetic Mirror Theory理论，发表在LOST北美官方论坛上，很快传遍所有LOST粉丝界，被翻译成了中文，被n个lost迷转载在论坛以及blog中，每个人都深信不疑，牛逼死了。中文翻译过来的理论是这样地：
鲁索（Marseille Rousseau）基因镜像理论（Genetic Mirror Theory）：
“我们每个人都有一个镜象存在于这个世界。就是所谓的「鲁索基因镜象理论」。鲁索的理论说每个人都有一个双胞胎存在这个世界的某一处。根据他的理论，从机率和自然定律推断，你永远也不会遇见这个人。这是法国马赛鲁索数学家在1988年所发表的，他同时用了几个数字来解释他的理论。
4 意指四种层次的距离。鲁索相信世界上任两个人之间的关系 ，不会超过四个人连结。所以，根据此理论，你可以透过四个人五种关系来连结你的镜象。例如：你兄弟的老板的邻居的侄子恰巧认识你的镜象。很难相信，但继续看下去吧！
8 则是指第八块大陆，也就是在这世界上，你唯一可能遇到你的镜象的地方。鲁索计算的结果认为这地方应该在南太平洋的某处。我们知道，它不一定是一个面积庞大的洲，也可能是个小岛。称它为大陆，因为来自其它七个大陆的人们，都可能在这里遇到自己的镜象。
15是你真的遇到你自己(镜象)的机率，那是15∕4,815,162,342的机率，注意到815了吗？让你联想起什么吗？
16则是同一个时间，推测能遇到自己镜象的最高人数，想想我们的主角有多少人吧？
23则是你和你的双胞胎年龄的差距。根据机会和机率，大概每二十三年，构成你的基因才会再发生一模一样的组合，因而形成另外一个你。
42 则是则是你和你的镜象能够同时存在于世界上的最高年数。所以，人们会在不同时间死去，而非人人都在七十五岁过世。例如我的镜象在2003年九月六号诞生，而我在1980年九月六号诞生，这并不代表，我会在2045年死去，当然也有这个可能性。但我的镜象也可能只活到十六岁。那么，一切就会重新开始。
这家伙的编造能力直逼迷失的编剧组，想像力太牛了。我用鲁索基因镜像理论、Genetic Mirror Theory和Marseille Rousseau这几个关键词google了一下，到处都是这个理论的转载，中英文都有，好些人还用这个理论来解释迷失剧情。有个帖子说连lost的编剧都准备将这个理论编入剧情里面，估计他们也觉得很牛。看开始看到的时候，我也相信了好一会儿，要不是我有google认证的习惯，估计也得屁颠屁颠的在blog上吹捧一番。

英文原文：
There is a book (theory) called “Genetic Mirror Theory and other Natuarlly Occuring Phenomenon,” by Marsille Roussau. Someone posted online this:
I recently found an interesting natuarlly occuring thoery found in our world that states everyone has a mirror image somewhere in the world. You may have heard of this. Its called Roussau’s genetic mirror theory, and I must say it is very interesting. Roussau’s genetic mirror theory says that everyone in the world has an exact twin somewhere, however according to the theory you never encounter this person, by laws of probablitly and other natuaral occuring phemnomen. Its the theory that was devised by a French Mathematician named Marseille Roussau in the year 1988. He used a series of numbers to explain his theory. Now I know you’re not going to believe this but here goes.
4 8 15 16 23 42
Let me explain…
The 4 stands for 4 degrees of separation (not 6 or 7 as commonly stated.) Roussau believed that everyone in the world was connected by four different people. So in theory could meet yourself by using four different people connected to you. Example: Your brother’s, boss’s, neighbor nephew, knows your mirror. Hard to believe, I know but keep reading.
The 8 stands for the eight continent, or the only place in the world where you could meet your mirror. He calculated it to be somewhere in the south pacific. Now we know its not actually as large as the other contintents but its used figurtively because everyone in all 7 continents could meet there mirror on the 8th universal continent.
The 15 stands for the chances of you acually meeting yourself on this place, as in 15 out of 4,815,162,342. Look at the second set “815.” Ring any bells? Interesting huh?
The 16 stands for the maximum amount of people that could encounter thier twin all at the same time. Think about the number of main characters.
The 23 is the number of years apart your twin and yourself are. You are not the same age as your twin. By chance and probablity it takes 23 years exactly for the same genes that made you to be connected again to form another you.
The 42 stands for the maximimum number of years your twin and yourself can be alive at the same time. However people do die at diffferent times so thats why everyone isn’t dead at 75. For example my twin was born on Sept. 6 2003 b/c i was born on Spet. 6 1980. Now that doesn’t mean i will die in the year 2045, I could, but its not set in stone. My twin could die when he is 16, and then the whole thing starts over again.
This is all very complicated and I don’t know how well I explained it but the connections with the show are too coinidental to not be real.
Roussau and his team (wife, included) went to the 8th continent. You can figure out how they died and why by the numbers and equations. It also fits with every character. You can predict when they will die. There are others on the island who are twins of the survivors, but have been there 23 years longer.
There is a book Roussau wrote 16 years ago in 1988 when he came up with the theory. Thats where I got it from.
