Disney at sea?

Hi, i found out that a French architect named Jean-Phillipe Zoppini has completed his design of a floating theme park. Called AZ Island, it looks like an enormous cruise ship with a marina and hotels on it. Reportedly Zoppini is in talks with Disney to create a Disney World on water. He's supposed to present his island at the Sea-Trade expo of Miami. Can anyone confirm this, or are these just rumours? (which is my best guess, taking Disney's bad financial state into mind)

Disney's financial position aside, I don't really see why they would have any interest in this kind of thing at all. They already have the cruise line which has Castaway Key and offered to guests in tandem with WDW. Sounds like an expensive idea for something they don't even need.


... Then again, I thought the space elevator was a joke till I saw an *expert* actually explain how it would work. :rolleyes:

The Space Elevator....

I read about this about 2 years ago....they made plans that proved they could build an elevator into space...I think the one I read about was "from the earth to the moon" (literally)...This was on cnn too, so its not just a rumor
