Heck if I'm going to be a crash test dummy I might as well do it in style. Aerosmith's Rock and Roller Coaster sponcered by Wonderbra.

I think you have a combination of a depression-like economy and corporations not seeing any value (or enough) in joining with The Mouse. Disney would love to have major corprations come in and subsidize the attractions, but the reality is they can't get them.

They don't compete for your business - they expect it from exec to exec-- not at the end user level.
