This is DCA for crying out loud! If they changed the video, everyone would still be going through just for the free tortilla. And I doubt that the "Central American cultures" would be as nearly offended as you seem to be! Society pokes fun at history all the time. That's what makes it sometimes easier to absorb the "history lesson" that is being tought. I'm sure the video is doing more good than damage, as I remember the place as even less entertaining when the preshow wasn't there.

Wow...this kid really bothers you - I say, go for it and hopefully the email or letter they respond to you is positive to your opinions - The only thing that is kind of tacky is asking for the free tortillas -

Actually, everytime we went through and saw the preshow my kids would point out that is how NOT to do a presentation at school. I should thank Mission. (And then ask for my free tortillas that we will be missing on Saturday). Kidding!

Originally Posted By crazycroc YES !!!! The sweet smell of victory!!! Let's look at the facts: A. Crazycroc complains of Jimmy's behavior and disenchantment with Mission. B.

Which can only lead us to believe that: D.Disney is refurbing the attraction to remove Jimmy and make it more sensitive to our central American tortilla trail blazing breathren. Thanks for your support, LP! Couldn't have done it without ya!
