Yes there are some pages left in google but most of the are not there anymore for example the index page. If you search google for the following text which is on our index page "New Theories tested at an undisclosed island in the South Pacific yield data which is used to develop military grade sonic weapons" it doesn't bring up our index page. (It only brings up index3.asp which was generated by a traffic generation program to be a permutation of the first page to get more search engine traffic.)
Aha.. now we're on to something - a traffic generation program?
Could it be that you've duped yourself out of existence?
Think about it this way - as I see it, you've only got nine incoming links to your site - 1 of those goes to your index3.asp page - and it's your highest PR incoming link.
Google is looking at your site and going 'hey, these all look the bloody same - what's the go? I'd better pick the best one', so, bammo, the majority of your other pages end up in the supplemental index.
You simply don't have the pagerank to support all these 'generated content' pages - and if people do choose to link to your site, they're linking to one of the gazillions of generated pages which means that PR is going to be spread very thinly amongst individual pages rather than being consolidated in one place.
Be VERY VERY careful with those programs - redirect all of the 'traffic generator' (hehe) pages back to your index page using a 301 (although that's going to be a bit difficult because you have asp- itis) - consolidate your PR.

Specifically, I'd like to call out a couple of points from the Quality Guidelines section: - Avoid hidden text or hidden links. - Don't create multiple pages, subdomains, or domains with substantially duplicate content.
To make sure that Google properly understands and ranks pages, we recommend that webmasters show the same content to users and search engines. At the bottom of your pages, I noticed some text that is hidden from users. Here's a small snippet from your homepage: "Dharma Initiative Hanso Foundation Lost T-Shirt Tshirt T Shirt 4 8 15 16 23 42 Alvar Hanso ghost ghosts spirit form spirit forms spirits phantom phantoms"
Looking at the site: search of your site, I saw several pages: index 2.asp, index3.asp , index4.asp, etc, that all appeared to have the same content, and as part of a traffic generation program, were created with the intent of manipulating search engine rankings.
As these practices violate our guidelines, they could have a harmful effect on how your site is indexed and ranked in Google. It looks like you've already taken a positive step in addressing these issues (presumably under doc's advice regarding duplicate content), as the duplicate pages I found in the site: search are now showing a 404 status. Once you believe your site does follow our guidelines, feel free to file a reconsideration request in Webmaster Tools: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35843
