What I think...as of today...for now...

[jt04]

I don't have an issue with questioning things. It would be good however to have a substance to the claims, or make the "questions" more specific. It appears all you want to do is just stir up the pot.

Blindly stating that the project is behind, without any knowledge of the actual construction schedule, and then standing by the claim is lunacy.

This thread is like arguing over the color of beige or off-white...

I never said it is behind I'm fairly certain. It has the appearence of being stalled. That is an opinion and not stated as a fact. There is a difference.

As I said earlier I would love for someone to show some actual substantial progress because I'm just not seeing it.

When did I "blindly state the project is behind"? I think there are 3 or 4 posters here trying to argue with me by misrepresenting what I say in hopes of starting an argument but I will not argue.

I just enjoy discussing the subject of WDW's future. It is interesting and fun. :wave:

I think most people are taking the following posts as you stating its behind.

At this rate it will open as the largest picnic area in theme park history.

That is what they are saying. But if DCA is any indication it is going to be tough to meet that deadline.

And everyone is assuming the kids coaster is greenlighted already but I have seen nothing in the rumor mill that indicates it has. So 2012 seems a bit optimistic with all the changes occuring to the plan.

If that's not you blatantly stating it's behind, I don't know what is.

How DARE you bring proof to the table. THAT is something JT has never heard of.

He/she has heard of it just never accepted it.

Didn't you know??? JT is allowed to make wild assumptions based on the smallest word or hidden meaning, but the rest of us are not allowed to question the reasoning or meaning behind his repeated posts.

So I guess he/she is the Mike Adams (aka the health ranger) of WDWMagic?

And if you post in a thread that he has marked like a dog, he will no longer respond to that thread. Don't we wish it worked in all threads!

All I can say is he/she is lucky that Steve is such a nice guy. I would have sent him/her packing quite some time ago as I can honestly not think of a single positive thing that he/she has contributed to this site.

BS. and BS is beneficial for the growth of all sorts of plants.

IMO it looks like they are indeed behind on this project. Honestly has anyone seen any physical progress in the last few weeks? I know I haven't noticed any...:shrug:

Site prep work and foundation work is always a time consuming task. So much work has to done before concrete can be poured.

It won't be long now before vertical construction begins. The hyperbole passed around here is worse than gas at the Texas Chili Cookoff.....

And I'm just glad Lee and Juan have the fortitude to not let the pratter that's tossed out not prevent them from giving us the updates as they receive them....

If you sat around and watched a piece of coal you would think it would never make it to a diamond. But eventually it could.

Like most of us in the construction field have said the site prep work takes quite a bit of time and to the untrained eye looks like nothing more than dirt being moved from one place to another. It is not uncommon to see projects of this size to take months before it goes vertical.

One large project I worked on spent about 4 months in site prep work but within a week of walls going up we were delivering the roof. The time from the first wall being set to being dried in took about 2.5 weeks.

Can a moderator just shut this thread down already? I come here looking for updates and it's nothing but an unproductive ing match.

:sohappy:

Or just ban the problem. He's one of the reasons so many good posters have left this site, and one of the reasons I barely come here anymore.

That is why we started a thread in chit chat. There is a thread called "just the facts" you might like better. This thread is for is for speculation.

Actually, from the very first page, we have this gem.

Again, let's keep this thread free of any wild speculation or opinion.

All I can say is he/she is lucky that Steve is such a nice guy. I would have sent him/her packing quite some time ago as I can honestly not think of a single positive thing that he/she has contributed to this site.

Has this really been going on for over half a decade?

You have keen powers of observation.

I'll keep scanning, searching and mining the web daily for any new signs of progress and will post anything I find here.

All well and good if you were familiar with construction and therefore knew what is an actual sign of progress.

But you scan, search, and mine the posts when people prove you wrong and ignore all of those posts.

I just can't wait for the next round of nonsense, foundation aberrations, and yellow sand theories!
