I want to spread the word, in the hopes that it might be useful and helpful.
Originally Posted By Malin I see Bob's comments are a cheap shot at me. Seems like some will try anything to create drama around here. But I have never disputed Urayasu was not damaged. My comments have always been aimed at the Resort in general. And not the outside area. And feel free to provide qoutes if I have done. Mr X thanks for spreading the word out and if your looking for it to get more exposure try posting it on a board like Micechat where more people will actually read it.

Now unless you have any more insults and lame comments to throw in my direction can we please either get back to the original subject or shut up. I've heard that the Rolling Blackouts are set to end later this month. Which in my view is a positive step forward for both the Resort and the people in Urayasu. Also the article thats been provided details very much the impact the Resort being closed has had on businesses in the area. Proving a point that not everyone in Japan is against the Resort reopening soon. On a side note I hope Urayasu will recover quickly and that mistakes will be learnt going forward. If we are to believe the folks at the OLC. The Resort suffered only minor damage. Perhaps OLC and Disney Imagineers can advise the city of Urayasu on measures to take for next time.

Pot, kettle, black.

Since I have kept silent and not posted anything else here in the Resort thread for a number of days. It still doesn't mean I can't contribute now and again, just not on a regular basis is what I said. And now that we have establish your married and that mawnck was greatly ammused my your comment. Can we get back to the topic of Urayasu or I have to start seriously questioning why some of you are posting here at all. If its not about the Resort or Urayasu I'm not interested and will not be responding to anymore comments.

It is sheer coincidence that some parts of Chiba prefecture have suffered worse damage than TDR - just pure luck. It is no reflection on the quality of construction that sits upon that landfill. OLC and TWDC have nothing to offer the city council and their city planners - they are doing the best possible job that they could. Tom Staggs, Bob Iger and Bill Earnest (MD for Asia, WDP&R) are in Tokyo at present surveying the resort and also discussing the issues with OLC. The situation isn't good - there is no re-opening date now - OLC just don't know when they could re-open.

Sounds like its a wide range of issues keeping the Resort closed at the moment. I would had thought how ever the Government promising to end rolling power outages at the end of this month would be in there favour. But I don't know the full list of other problems its currently facing. Shame because it was looking very promising just a few days a go when images showed the Easter decorations up around the Resort.

So maybe you should direct your comments at others instead.
