We have even spent the block out day at the hotel pool, and then seeing a movie in DTD.

They're within their rights to do so (I think). Ploeb909 is within his rights to complain on the Disney fan website, and then not renew his $1000+ worth of APs. And telling somebody to "grow up" because they're disappointed that they can't afford to take their family to Disneyland anymore? In this economy? Grow up yourself, Ayn Rand.

Grow up yourself, Ayn Rand." They have APs. They obviously can afford to take their family to Disneyland. I don't have much sympathy either.
