    Does anyone know if it's working now? Does it still shoot off reliably? And is it every 15 minutes, like I remember?

    Thanks very much.

    It's been a few yrs since we've stayed so I'm not sure now. It was working when we were there to see the decorations last Dec but how often I couldn't tell you.

The geyser was working of January of this year. The only time it should not be working seems to be when they refurbish the pool. That is unless this another one of those little magical touches WDW has decided to cut back on.
