That does sound about right. I know it's on the left, and if you are looking at the tile you will be facing towards SSE. It's close to six feet off of the ground.

And I never saw the obelisks as tombstones or anything close. I like the look of the Epcot entryway, and I hope they're in no hurry to tear it all down.

It could be a happy birthday greeting or anniversary - whatever. Then as you leave, you can see your birthday message flashed up on SSE for 5 seconds while you are leaving the park. You can theme it like Phineas and Ferb took over the laser and are using it to display these messages.

Originally Posted By danyoung No, they don't keep the torches running through the entire 20 minute chaser. They shut them off at the end of The Promise, which runs about 3 minutes. Then the 17 minute Tapestry of Nations music comes on. In the past, the torches ran through this entire 20 minute period. Now they only run 3 minutes. But I agree with you on the start time - that used to be a very cool part of the atmosphere of the WS for that half hour before showtime. Ah well, budgets and expenses and all . . .
