A lighting instrument gets power and control. Did you mean 5000ft of power cable? Also, 45 24 channel dimmer racks would be 1080 channels of dimming. This makes no sense. There is nothing around the castle, even with the shows going on, that would require this massive amount of dimmer channels. Please clarify.

This would perhaps end the debate as to the true quality of your character and maybe even provide enlightening new information on SpectroMagic. I'll even let you, WDWtechie, pick the date & time! Who's with me? <Waits for a rallying cry of support from the troops...>

No i am not talking about the lighting system installed a few years ago. I am talking about the new one they are installing. Yes there will be new patterns ans some new color effects.

Spread it out over the internet where thousands of people have access to it rather than 2 or 3 people who might meet with you personally. I'm sure it's for our own good, because your boss also pointed out that if you tell us then you'd also have to kill us. I for one, love your info. Keep it coming.

Also, your boss is aware of this and it has nothing to do with "security." Really, give it a rest already.
