    howPic.asp?Filename=/files/TOTPreview2/big/P16-004.JPG&Caption=...are+keyed+to+a+seating+chart+on+the+wall.&ID=508160</a> - it looks like there's a missing seat in the middle of the back row. Is that correct, or is my memory of WDW's ToT shot even though I was on it Friday?

    However, I suppose it doesn't really matter which library you select--there's an open space between the lines in the boiler room right before the stairs to the upper level begin. You can duck under the chain across that open space and select either the upper level or the lower level.

    Unless of course, there's lots of people blocking your way or a bellhop instructs you not to do that. :)

    So, Labuda, your memory is not shot. :)

Reading this thread I came up with a few questions but will post those in the topic geared to that later today, once again thanks for the great work!
