Just got back from a long vacation in wdw and realized that I usually spin that thing when in tomorrowland but for some reason I missed it this year. Is it still there? I remember last year when I was there it didnt have any water under it so it was unable to be spun.

It IS still there and the water DOES run - but not all the time. It's hit-and-miss when it runs but I've seen it just a couple months ago with the water. We always go by and push it because kids are always fascinated when it gets going.

Not sure if weather is the determination of whether or not the water is turned on or if someone just forgets sometimes, but you can still find it running more days then not.

Well that's disappointing.
Especially since the Ripley's Believe it or Not museum in Gatlinburg, Tennessee has one just like it that's still running, at least as of last week.

Maybe we should all chip in and buy Disney a new one.

It's in B-mode?

Someone better start a big-spin-globe-ball-on-water effects watch thread!

In the meanwhile, they can just illuminate it with strobe lights.
