    Lights of Winter not being displayed this year (2009)!?!

    Ah so now I don't feel so bad about my brother ditching us Saturday and going to Seaworld instead of burning a ticket on EPCOT. It makes him look smart.:hammer:

    Lights of Winter not being displayed this year (2009)!?!

    I've tweeted (my username is the same in all my online outlets), posted on my blog, talked about it across 3 major Disney forums, e-mailed Guest Relations and DVC Member Satisfaction (what the heck, eh?), tweeted DisneyParks and posted on the DisneyBlog. Letters and face-to-face protests come...

    But he's VP of EPCOT? You think he just nodded and said "Yes ma'am" to Crofton and Wallace? If he wasn't ok with this, getting a few upset letters from guests may be just the amunition he needs to challenge his bosses then. He can do a "See, I told ya they'd miss them".

    Well we could... Hand out as many "Bring Back LOW" pins and magnets as we can buy. (Their great design is a way of educating the casual guests on what is missing this year.) Organizing various "Lights" parties throughout the season. Get a group of 20 people or so to gather on the walkway...

    Lights of Winter not being displayed this year (2009)!?!

    Thanks. So that would be: Vice President, Epcot — Dan Cockerell President, Walt Disney World Resort – Meg Crofton Senior Vice President of Operations, Walt Disney World Resort – Erin Wallace So which one do we think authored this particular idea? Or was it groupthink idiocy?

    Lights of Winter not being displayed this year (2009)!?!

    Of course EWP is the most dated thing onsite. It's corny and 70's electronica. Spectro has a similar sight and sound. We all know the excuse given by @DisneyParks was a lame half truth. They knew darn well the attraction needed some upgrading when they had them up last year. But instead of...

    Um, dumb question of the night here, but what exactly does TDO stand for?

    Lights of Winter not being displayed this year (2009)!?!

    The train isn't there either?!!!!!! ? Oh come on! Just when I get my plans set to take my entire family down for Christmas AND book a room at Boardwalk to enjoy a bit of EPCOT my first night, they go and pull this crud? You have got to be kidding me! The folks in charge of EPCOT are in...

    Lights of Winter not being displayed this year (2009)!?!

    Agreed. Complete and total BS used as lamo excuses to cover some exec's poor decision-making ability. Granted those lights are expensive to run. They are incandescent bulbs in a series IIRC. But they had a whole year to plan and build an updated replacement with cheaper LEDs. Methinks...

    WDW vs Universal - Convincing Arguments Anyone???

    Is those one of those Mac vs. PC type arguments? I can see the interest in Universal for those who've never been there. I had it too, until I visited a few years ago. You go in thinking since the park is in Orlando it must be like Disney World, with the same atmosphere but more rollercoasters...

    Ever get the back from WDW blues?

    I'm a week away from our annual (Gee it feels so good to say that) trip to Disney. I went once when I was a kid back in the 70's, again as a surprise family trip 20 years later, and a few years ago on a spur of the moment timeshare preview. When we were offered a week's timeshare (via Marriott)...
