It was pretty apparant from Jin's new duds in "316", that most of the losties (Kate, Jack, Hurley, Jin, Sawyer, Juliet, Daniel) are stuck in the 70's (Dharma's heyday). This proposed an immediate thought to me. The losties will inevitably come in contact with a young Benjamin Linus.
So here's my theory:
Ben Linus came into contact with the Losties during this time, and the impact of this meeting is the reason for his strange actions and behavior up until present day. This meeting could explain:
-Ben having a list of names of the 815ers
-Ben always being a step ahead of everyone and knowing things that he seemingly shouldn't
-Ben having extensive files on all of the main characters lives up until the point of the crash
During the time of the 815 crash, life amongst the others was peachy. Weekly book clubs, jovial moods, lots of Khaki and Starched collars. All of which changed when 815 crashed, almost as if Ben had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and now that it had come had began this inevitable "Oh crap this is it" moment, where he knew he would once again meet up with his "childhood acquaintances".

I realize this is full of holes and may be scoffed at some who are cemented in the "rules of time travel", but it's my first time so cut me some slack. At any rate, i think it's plausible to suggest the losties will meet a young Ben and some shenanigans will ensue.Theory by RoBiNe
