Is this article true?

[MeTa]

It says they are revamping the IASW ride in DL to accomodate all shapes and sizes.


Just curious

Interesting if true. At least if they give me my own boat, I'll know why.:lookaroun

supposedly it is, theyre still using the same boats from decades ago when people were alot thinner, now we have gotten alot fatter and as a result of that the boats sink deeper with so much more added weight and they end up stopping causing major block ups on the ride, also disneyland's iasw doesnt have any kind of tracking on their ride to tell if there is a block, so if one boat stops in the middle of the ride, the cms dont know about it til they send out a boat that stops where the ride is supposed to start, and by that time they wouldve already sent out a number of boats, causing even more of a problem because noone wants to be stuck on that ride for over 20 min listening to that song over and over again!:lol: I heard that because of all the improvements that need to be done , iasw will be refurbing for a whole year, i think they wanted it to be open by the following christmas, i forgot where i read it, but i'm sure that someone will post the link for u here eventually

Al Lutz said so on his site back on 10/9, so it must be true. :lookaroun

 

[Rufus T Firefly]

You mean Al was right again?

 

[mkt]

I'm curious why the original thread I posted about this is gone

Al Lutz posted all of this information on his update on 10/9. Now, a few weeks later, other "journalists" are plagiarizing the Lutz info and posting it on their own websites and periodicals as if it was their information and their story.

It's not.

It was an Al Lutz story from 10/9, that is still available on the front page of the Miceage website. It's now just going around the web, and those folks who don't read Miceage are finally hearing about it.
