Ah, thats better. I can sleep easy now. :lookaroun :lol:

How about the fireworks? Are they still rationing, or are they back to the usual number of shells per show?

Heehee...Same here.I was worried that it would still be down when I *try* to go in Aug.


Also, any changes on the dates for the Earth Barge refurb? Or is it still Aug 16th?

From what I understand, most of the pyro is back. Hopefully someone who sees the show in the next few days can confirm.

Can anyone tell me or point me in the right direction to find out why they were cutting down? And when they were?

Thanks :wave:

There are some difficuties/new developments over in China for the moment. Here's an article jmvd posted in another thread:

Fireworks shipments from China have been effected by a number of things recently. There was a warehouse fire, and then some of the ports were closed due to the Olympics etc.

I found the article I saw this in:

They were cutting down because a shipment of pyro was late.


Any more news?Like when the Earth Barge is going down for refurb?
