What if the man with the eye patch was controlling the smoke monster from another station?

Flame...smoke...hmmm...

very interesting observation.

Also-  don't forget what Danielle called Smoky- the "security system."  What does a security system do, but protect something.  I think Smoky is guarding some aspect of the the island's secrets, & because Eko was so strong in who he was & what actions he took in his life, Smoky viewed him as a threat, so he killed him.  I think Eko's words to Locke were like a warning not to upset Smoky or they would face the same consequence.

Don't forget that when Locke and Ecko were talking about the monster Locke described it as a bright white light - is this because he hasn't any need to repent?
