Been thinking about all The Wizard of Oz references on Lost...
When Horace Goodspeed and the Tin Man were first seen, they were both
chopping wood. In the Oz book by L. Frank Baum the Tin Man reveals to
Dorothy that he had once been a human, but had fallen under the spell
of the wicked witch and proceeded to hack himself limb from limb. [eg.
when chopping a tree, he would miss and acidentally hack off a body
part]. To save own his life he kept going back to the tinsmith to get
replacement parts: left leg, right leg, left arm, right arm, etc.
Really!
