Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow.

It used to be that....but we were told by our managers, that now they don´t want people to mention that.... it is now simply EPCOT, with no meaning at all. The Community of Tomorrow was supposed to be Celebration, but I don´t think that worked out as planned anyways.... and that´s another story....

There are a few other expressions I have heard for Epcot.

Every Person Comes out Tired

Every Paycheck comes on Thursday

Walt Disney's vision of EPCOT was a working university that would showcase not only the worlds best professors and best minds, but also cutting edge technology. This would be more of a school than a theme park. However, he wasn't around when it was built and it was modified to be a theme park.

Epcot used to be considered a "learning experience", and still is to some point, but now seems more and more like a theme park than a place of learning.
