Another thing: Where are the pieces of Danielle's boat? You'd think she and her crew (while they were still alive) would have used it to create a shelter, just like the Losties did with their plane wreckage on the beach. Is it possible that she didn't crash on the island, as she claims? Maybe she was originally a Dharma Inititaive employee. We know she was a scientist. Maybe she survived the purge and that's what made her such a wackadoo? That might also explain why she never tried to get her daughter back. She knew she was hopelessly outnumbered.
