I haven't thought that much about Rousseau's message (since I don't speak French) but I did fnd it interesting that the Black Rock (ship) provided the ability for the Losties to get into the hatch and now Jack identifies the location of Zeke's "line" by a black rock that he remembers. I'm beginning to wonder if "black rock" is a metaphor for something more significant.
