I'd still call the new iasw additions a success with the general public, though. >Thank you Dan, I appreciate your thoughts.< And I appreciate your courtesy, dean. We disagree quite a bit, but there's never a reason to escalate into personal attacks, as happens so many times online. Thanks for playing fair!

Nothing is an overwhelming success by that standard. Nothing is loved by EVERYONE. But since the majority of the parks harshest critics like it, it seems very successful to me.

She said she has not had one conversation with a guest who likes it. And these were not guests that were complaining about it, just brought up in conversation.

Wait...I'm assuming the New Guinea room is the one that had the masked drummers, right? Nevertheless, the North American room appears to be very, very bright...and I like the addition of a whopping 3 Indians. The South Pacific room appears to have a lot more color as well...it's never been like that before, has it? And hasn't always been a large room with very little in it to begin with?
