I aim for best quality value rather than cheapness. That's why I used to worship WDC.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Lol, field marshall is a good one. Belbin is quite good. It looks at team dynamics and where best to place people. It also talks about having balanced teams. I think when using psychometric testing Belbin and Myers Briggs are equal in accuracy, but they are designed for slightly different purposes.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Well I suppose the closing of PI, the removal of characters from LTT (yay) and -em's personal account show that it is very likely to impact. and now we brace ourselves. The news reported that finance houses and government officials think the UK is in for a recession within 3 months (funny, I thought we were already in one). On the flip side, tomorrow will be a ground break for a new Marriott Vacation Club in Orlando, it will share facilities with the JW Marriott and Ritz Carlton.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip Hey... if you don't believe in God you can take it wherever you want! ;-) I was just trying to get this sucker back on topic. Actually, I've wondered for a least 150 posts now why this hadn't been moved to World Events. That is really where it belongs, and I wouldn't feel so bad about how far astray we've gone. On the other hand, I truly enjoy the fact that some people have posted here who would never venture into World Events. Advantage What Section? I’m not sure.
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey davewasbaloo- I also think we are closer in our beliefs that it might appear. I will take a look at the two links you posted. I for one am ready to put this baby to bed. I'd rather talk about WDW again.
Originally Posted By bobbelee9 Had this been moved to World Events, I never would have read it. It's interesting, irritating and informative to see everyone's views. This shows me that we aren't all Disney airheads, people out there have and use their brains. And without too much name-calling, things are working themselves out.
Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 Very funny X ... I do agree with Bobbelee though. If this had been in WE, I wouldn't have even noticed it. Of course, it still never changes anyone's opinions. Too many closed minds. Too many folks who simply believe what they've been bred to. I'll just try and bring this back on track a bit by saying that since I KNOW Disney is making all sorts of behind the scenes decisions based upon a prolonged economic downturn that, as far as the Orlando (and Aneheim as well) theme parks go, the sky is getting a lot closer to the ground than it was. Feel free to beleive it or not, doesn't change a thing. The arguing about personal responsibility when the government, officials/politicans and Big Business have none and don't follow the rules is laughable and can go on sans this Spirit. I'll be haunting off continent shortly! (continuing my lifestyle of the rich and infamous!)
