I mean, that's been the party line from their resident "experts" for weeks, and to some variation or another, months.

I know things at Disney can change on a dime and that one hand truly doesn't have a clue what the other is doing. But the FACT the wand was being removed has been knowledge in many, many circles for months now. The Internet world is a strange place indeed.

I can hardly wait.

I see AKL more like the OKW crowd with Contemp buyers more like Boardwalk -- just IMHO

Heck, what fun would a discussion forum be if everyone agreed with each other. Diversity is what makes our Country great, and it's what makes a Disney forum great.

And while it's not really a war, this one issue has caused some strong disagreements between the sites, with Spirit and others here stating that the wand was coming down, and a few so called knowledgeable folks at WDWMagic saying that it was totally false. Like anything else, if you have patience and can wait things out, you find out who has the credibility.

I don't post/read WDWMagic because there are only so many hours in the day ... and only so much time I care to devote to visiting Disney sites. I post on two, and I am not afraid to state I believe this is the best Disney site on the web. I sometimes take shots at them from afar because I've been told that sometimes when my info makes its way over there, it generates a lot of 'that Spirit has no clue what he's talking about' kind of talk. ... That rankles me because it just isn't true and it may influence others to not listen when I post things I know to be accurate. But I honestly don't have the experience with what happens over there regularly to offer a legit opinion on what they do and how accurate their info may be.
Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 <<Oh, and I think Spirit mentioned that the Purple crap out back will be coming down soon too. Any update on this???>> Nope. But I'll ask around when I'm there shortly. It isn't a question of if though, just one of when!
