That's what I live for. It's also why I haven't commented yet and haven't watched video of this. When I actually experience it then I'll say something. I'm certainly not against changing something like this when newer technology can allow for better show, but I need to feel it ... too many people are judging stuff today based on what they see online.

Light Magic actually opened, then was rejected by the public, and quietly put away. The topic at hand is public outcry forcing Disney to change their plans. As far as I know, it happened only once.

But even if it was pretty much equal, HE set the tone of the conversation. If you spit in someone's face, you can't expect the recipient to say, "Well thank you sir, but I respectfully disagree".

Sorry, you can't post crap like that on an internet bulletin board and not expect to get called on it. I've had it happen to me, and when it did I had to conclude it was probably deserved.

Every single thread that he's a part of turns out like this, and he just doesn't seem to be able to learn. Very frustrating.

I really don't think I'll be posting there. And I'm sure I'll be treated fairly here as I usually am. I do think I'm going to like the changes, but I'm certainly not sure of that. I've had a rash of censorship on MAGIC that makes it all feel like a waste ... FWIW, one thread completely vanished and it was only on the single-biggest P&R development this century -- namely the groundbreaking of Shanghai DL ... 35 some posts disappeared because they just don't want intelligent discussion/debate there ... then there was a thread on the Star Tours costumes, which turned into a talk about how many morbide obese CMs work at WDW and how many guests in that condition visit and that was just hacked up. I don't like talking in an echo chamber. And I don't believe in many things like ethical lawyers, the death of network TV or the power of pxie dust.

Take note lads & lassies I've been off the boards for a few months & absolutely nothing has changed but some of the names(I assume to protect the innocent)! So let me extend an olive branch with a word of thanks for makin' it so dog gone easy to slide back aboard.
