Look at the Black smoke - doesn't it look like it's being funneled, like it would in say a "factory?" Do you think that is coincidental? But wouldn't they need some kind of feul or coal or something to make the black smoke. Black smoke was also recently used when they were announcing that a pope hadn't yet been selected. Could they be using another religious sign that the "baby" has been born but hasn't yet been received in their presence.
Well, CGI can certainly do a better job at producing a convincing smoke signal than even the Church of Rome.
My first thought was on the lack of air currents over a tropical island that has proven to have more sudden rainshowers than Seattle. And yet, the column of smoke looks to go up at least 500 ft. before curving and another 500 before starting to disburse.
My other thought was - tire fire (and where the heck did The Others get all those tires?).

BLACK ROCK
...This ship does seem to be very old, definately late 1800s,
You're right, but off by 50-100 years. Steam powered paddleboats were taking over from sail powered ships by the 1860s. The ship could be from nearly a century earlier, which again makes me raise one of my few factual issues, which is dynomite wasn't invented until after ships like this were obsolete and long decomissioned as ships of the line.

Argh! More questions...
Following the decline of the pirates, another group of outlaws preyed upon travelers in the general vicinity of the Cave-in-Rock.
Bolds mine with these comments:
- Black Rock being a ship from the period of piracy.
- Sawyer, Kate, in some ways Sayeed.
- The passengers of Oceanic 815.
- The Cave in at the caves earlier in the season.
This show is so delicious!
