And to make matters worse their parents are either not paying any attention to them or think everything they do is the absolute cutest thing imaginable so they don't keep the kids from getting too crazy or from bothering everyone else.
I've never read that on Miceage, and I've been reading them since the late 1990's.
You had to ruin it by bringing the Fabulous Disney Babe into it, huh?
Michelle Smith, recently re-invented as Shelly Valladolid, is one of the reasons why I never returned after my one and only visit to the "Noon Meet" on Sunday in the Hub back in 1998-ish during the alt.disney.disneyland days. She is the same today as she was then, repeating Al Lutz's old rumors as her own and dishing up non-scoops she gets from custodians and bartenders her ex-husband Jim Hill emails with from his cabin in New Hampshire. She disappeared for a decade and reportedly got involved in the K-Pop subculture (why not?) but upon her return to Disneyland rumor world she apparently hasn't changed.
Just because someone can type and has a home Internet connection does not make them a good source for Disneyland rumors. This isn't a dig on you mickEblu, you likely had no idea who that was, but I would trust the 19 year old selling churros in Frontierland to tell me where the next DVC property is going more than I would trust Shelly.

As for the Paradise Pier, it's obviously an expansion plot long term. But I think with Star Wars and Marvel and the new parking structure and rumored remodel of Downtown Disney, I doubt anything will happen there in the next five years.
As a local and long time Disneylander (yes, I prefer it over WDW as well though I love both), there really isn't much of a need to stay at a local hotel. The times we have, it's been a special treat for the girls in the case of the DL hotel, my 40th bday. If we did decide to do a multi-day stay in Anaheim, it would very likely not be a DL hotel even though I can get a CM discount from a friend. I'm at a point in life where I'm not willing to spend that amount of money unless it's on a tropical beach : ) The Disney bubble here just doesn't feel the same to me, maybe because I worked in Anaheim for 14 years and/or have been to the resort more times than I can count in the last 45 years.
The best thing about The Grand Californian is its wonderful use as a resting place where you can have a drink, sink into a huge comfy chair and listen to relaxing, live piano music. And you don't have to have a room there to enjoy that.

I hear the Hollywood Tower Hotel has been having trouble with their elevators. Maybe it's the same issue?
This isn't a deal-breaker for me, but I've often waited a LONG time for an elevator to arrive, both in the lobby and on my floor. Well, long by hotel elevator standards... Like, two minutes.
