Assuming most of the time skipping Lost characters are in their 30s, all of them were alive and children in 1977 - the same time their adult selves are running around a mysterious island.
First of all, this clearly creates some sort of alternate timeline, something the creators said they would not do. However, it becomes unavoidable in this case as each time skipping character has two versions of himself or herself alive in 1977.
So forget about the inherent paradox this presents and let's explore how one may affect the other.
Could a young Sayid suddenly get a distant sensation that he has injured someone? Could a young Sawyer develop an ability to lie after living a lie for three years?
We haven't seen any evidence of this (other than young Sayid's ease in killing a chicken), but it only makes sense that a single person in two places at one time might somehow share an experience.
Who knows, maybe that's where Hurley first heard the winning lottery numbers?!
