You want it open to all "paying" guests but you seem content to have the passholder lounge which is only open to guests who pay a certain price.

Hm... touchy, touchy... :lol:
Actually, I think the VIP lounges should be on a rotating schedule where they have to be used as Passholder lounges for a certain period of time. Plus, there's a huge difference between a small portion of an already-existing and functioning building that's used to entertain guests being set aside for passholders and an entire building, taking up a good amount of space in the park, being used for "special events." You're grasping at straws.
As for the existence of the lounges, I never thought of the prospect of there being a specific place where passholders could hang out and be around other passholders until they opened the lounge at Epcot. Now that they've tried it, I think it's a good idea that thay should continue. How did we get on the lounges anyway?

Actually, the big O is used quite a bit. I've been in there several times this year for different functions. As has been stated a thousand times. There is a lot more to it than meets the eye. The entire building is used for many things: the cast cafeteria/special events/cast events/pin trading events/first aid/baby care/restrooms/etc. The REAL eyesore to me is the "walkway to forever" around it. That thing just goes all over the place and is not much of a shortcut to anywhere by the time you zig-zag back and forth over the water.

AND your logic is faulty... opening everything up to everyone isn't the point. You DO seem to support the passholder's lounge idea and this perceived slight to poor college students is no different. A perk you receive when you "upgrade" your experience. :hammer:

Besides... what kind of socialistic idea is it that everyone DESERVES everything someone with more money than they do has? If you pay a premium you get a premium item. It's not like life in general isn't like that. We all don't get BMW 7 Series cars when we apply for our driver's licenses... you buy what you can afford and enjoy that car.

This agruement is not only going around in circles, but now we're getting into name-calling. Ridiculous.
Look, you like Odyssey, I don't. That's that. I like passholder lounges... I don't know, or care, if you do. All I'm saying is Epcot is not utilizing that building as much as it could be and I think they should either make use of the property or get rid of the building there and build something that will be more of use.
If you thik it is being used in a proper manner, than that's your business and my arguement is moot to you. I'm not going to question your logic, because you see what you see and perceive what you want to perceive. Same with me. I don't think it's being used properly, so I think it's a problem.

Geez...
