May I also suggest we keep this to the topic at hand?
Nay, lad. The ride was shortened to basically save money. Closing upstairs was cost effective, but they needed space for the smaller Imageworks (and larger shop) They also wanted to get rid of the parts of the ride system that had caused the most trouble during T&A, had led to the ride opening being delayed 5 months, and had neevr been fully fixed all the way to 1999; the load/unload arrangement and the Flight to Imagination show scene. JII was like Test Track - a design ahead of its time, that wasn`t quite ready to be applied in the field. Sadly loosing 40% of the original ride track was the answer. In theory this did make the ride safer, since the risk of cascades and jumping the rails were significantly reduced, but I only know of a few instances when the vehicles jumped the track and only when the park was closed. They normally just wouldn`t align with the rotating show scene or the unload speedramp (when it was used)Are you saying they shortened the Imagination ride significantly because part of the ride was unsafe? I'm just not following the argument.
As for the old "Fire Mountain" rumors...
My kids watch a show on PBS called "Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman" -
Anyway,
the premise of the show is a kids game show, where he awards points to teams of kids when they complete tasks, etc...
The show just recently had this one team of kids go to WDI and help develop a rollercoaster that involved a volcano.
The kids designed it, involving an inversion, some inside the volcano & outside the volcano stuff... they put it to work with a scale model, then input the data into a roller coaster simulator.
Then the folks at WDI took the kids on the simulator... after the first test they tweaked it, etc.
Then they re-rode it and had park guests (from MK??) test it as well...
Now I wonder something.. and maybe someone here can fill us all in...
Is this commonplace? Is this something that kids get to do all the time? Is there something like this at Disney Quest or elsewhere and I just am not aware of it?
Or is this a preview that WDI is looking/testing/researching and gathering input from everywhere to build our long awaited Indy themed E-ticket at MK?
Any clues?
(btw- I'll finally get to ride the one at DLR in July!!)
I have never done this but i believe they have it at Disney Quest. Where you could create and ride your own rollercoaster. I believe it was called virtual space mountain??? i may be wrong. anyway i think it has been removed. can someone else confirm please?

MythBuster - I understand what you're saying, but how is removing static show scenes or elements related to safety? Are you saying they shortened the Imagination ride significantly because part of the ride was unsafe? I'm just not following the argument.
Anybody who uses Firefox can get an IP. It's built into the Firefox browser. And you can get an extenstion to have it displayed in the lower right corner.
Funny, I work in federal law enforcement, yet I have never heard of this software that does what you're talking about:shrug: !! I have plenty of databases to use to obtain information, but nothing LE exclusive that gives out IP info... And if I want accurate IP information, I send a subpoena. Anyone can use a computer in a library, btw....
Checked this right as I was going to bed, and I can't believe I forgot that. I was going to include that in my post.
The wand cometh down in winter - spring depeding on EPCOT park management and when they decide.
Now what anagrams can you generate from "Eat your salt, but don't forget the sugar".... seems like a suspicious phrase to me. :lookaroun
If you would read all of his posts and not search to prove the guy (who all of our proven insiders seem to believe is also an insider) wrong, you would find that he explained the switch to a summer removal.really now? and hear I thought it was coming down monday
