    Gas Prices, Or Alarmist Kevin Yee strikes again

    That's a really good point, which I think highlights how poorly thought out these articles are.

    Some Hillish Details on the Idol Experience

    From the renderings the entire thing appears to be much like the stage for the actual show, with projection screens, truss, and lighting. That stuff can be erected and torn down in a weekend.

    Gas Prices, Or Alarmist Kevin Yee strikes again

    http://miceage.micechat.com/kevinyee/ky062408a.htm Let's start by debunking his premise... "With costs around $5/gallon, that’s a cool $4.4 million per year, just to power the busses." So if attendance at the Magic Kingdom is north of 17 million people a year, that means a DOUBLING...

    Kevin Yee- Parks close one day a week?

    THis is from a Jim Hill article dated 2/21/2003: "But for right now, it's all Disney can do to keep the parks it already has in Orlando open. As I previously mentioned in this week's "Project Gemini" story: if the upcoming war with Iraq has a prolonged negative impact on WDW's attendance...

    New 'Smartwater' beverage available at snack carts

    I agree that the effects of global warming are frequently overstated. What bothers me more is the wastefulness of turning oil into plastic, and all the oil used to power the plants that put the water into the bottles, and the legions of ships and trucks that guzzle oil getting the stuff from...

    Go back and reread posts 72, 104, and 106 carefully. :brick:

    The "Disney Look"

    Im pretty sure thats in response to segregation at Disneyland, not uniform violations.

    Thank you. I'm glad someone else here sees through the semantics.

    New 'Smartwater' beverage available at snack carts

    Not to mention the rediculous carbon footprint bottled water has (even if every single bottle is recycled). Especially Fiji... good god. Might as well start selling "Polar Ice Water" -- From one of the World's remaining glaciers, directly to you!

    Nintendo DS Test?

    Well, there is the important little detail that Steve Jobs is now a major Disney stockholder thanks to the Pixar purchase. Personally I think there could easily be a website updated wait times etc... that could be usable by any device with internet access and a decently sized screen without...

    Disney to outsource making of some Audio Animatronics

    Wasn't the perpertually-in-B-mode Yeti "Made in America" ?

    Kevin Yee- Parks close one day a week?

    Sorry to hear about your wife, but in all due respect, people don't buy American cars for many reasons. But back to the topic, I don't think they would do this, but if they did close two parks on day a week you'd still have 26 park-days per week, which is still 5 more than we ever had prior...

    Soundstage 1 Construction Update

    There's no way Lasseter would allow them to clone that trainwreck of an attraction. I mean, anything is an improvement on Superstar Limo... except maybe keeping it closed.

    New Haunted Mansion Spiel

    I think 'deeply distressed' fits the bill quite nicely. But more importantly, it sounds cool.

    WALL-E in LA for the NBA Finals Game 3

    He's headed to DCA sometime after the movie opens, according to the LA Times, and there are rumors that there's second one for WDW. http://travel.latimes.com/daily-deal-blog/index.php/animatronic-wall-e-r-2005/

    FWIW.....a CM told me.....

    That sounds like one of those crazy stats thrown out during a blowout football game. 'So and so leads the league in plays to the left side of over 20 yards in the 3rd quarter when they lead by at least 15 points'. :wave:

    The Little Mermaid Attraction Headed to MK?

    That's all I can say. However, that hasn't stopped someone else (who apparently doesn't care for their job as much as I do)-- http://www.screamscape.com/html/seaworld_california.htm Toward the bottom.
