If I remember correctly, I think there were 2 wastebaskets in our room at the Contemporary with a sign asking you to use one for your recycleable plastics.....

LOL....all I could think of when I read this was Wall-E...
I got the Mickey one as well. We ran out of them on our first shipment back in the spring because all of the CMs bought them!

Are these the signs that are supposed to be new? I kept thinking I hadn't seen them before but I wasn't entirely certain....

Those are the ones. They've been around now for a week or so.

I think I was there maybe the day or so after they were put up. I walked up to these and ran my finger across the top and they were brand-spanking new clean.
The ones on the other side advertised HISTA, of all things. :lookaroun:lookaroun That was disturbing but whatever. At least there are new signs.

HISTA? Of all the attractions on that side of Future World, they chose HISTA? Seems odd to me...
But something similar happened to me a few years ago...I left MK on a Wednesday night, went back first thing Thursday morning, and found that all the two-finger scanners that were there less than 10 hours ago had been replaced by one-finger scanners. That one took me by surprise!
You'd be surprised to see what they can do overnight!

We just came back from the Food and Wine Festival and I'm so happy to hear they are being more proactive about recycle bins. When you have people who want to recycle and are not presented with any opportunities, it's very frustrating. We would usually end up hanging on to all our Dasani bottles till we found one....which sometimes took forever :veryconfu or till we got back to our hotel room (which had a bin for bottles) We spoke to a cast member (on Sanitation duty) and he said they had plans in motion to put more recycling cans next to garbage cans in the parks. Excited to hear that was accurate info. :sohappy: You know us Canadians....always happy to be recycling.

While I also appreciate recycling bins, if they are already processing all waste to separate out recyclables then all they really need are some signs on or near the trash cans stating such. Or maybe a blurb in the park maps.
Although separate bins tends to cut down on waste processing labor and help provide a cleaner product to the recyclers... If executed properly...

YEAH! That is why I was wrestling with them being new signs or not...naturally being the EPCOT-geeky-girl I took pictures...
But what on earth is up with HISTA? I couldn't stop laughing thinking who made that decision....'lesee...HISTA...YEAH THAT ROCKS!'
:lol:

Maybe they want to direct more people to HISTA since it's waning in popularity to more properly disperse crowds? Sort of like the rationale for "surprise" FastPasses to Carousel of Progress? :shrug:

What's the point if it's going to be replaced soon?

You know, now that I think about it, it may actually make sense...
I assume they have three signs there like in the other breezeway. One is probably for Soarin' and another is probably for Nemo. It only makes sense to have something pointing to the other pavilion.
But then again, why didn't they just put "Imagination" on the sign?
It's all so very confusing. And only a choice few even care about it to disect the logic as I have. :lol:
