When will the letters be removed?

We should start writing letters and making phone calls.

Well, juding from the LP Live picture, the current version is now the candy cane stripes, so you did get a chance to see that, at the LP meet last winter. Aaah, technicalities! : )

It's interesting that it took them so long before they started redecorating the letters (other than the Block Party Bash cone, nothing was done until YOAMD 2.0), but once they started, they were seldom in their 'normal' colors. I will miss the constant change that kept them so fresh. Hopefully there will be something similar (maybe along the lines of the Disney Showcase displays) in the new entrance that is constantly changing with the seasons.

I really think that Disney should keep the letters. They a are apart of Disneyland History. They have become just as important as floral Mickey and the Castle.

I like the idea of adding the letters along the tram route. They could have one side of the route saying California and the other side with similar letters that say Disneyland. Boom, Disneyland California makes sense and only us crazies here will know where California came from.

Heh.

Losing the letters does really sick though.

It also doesn't help that "California" has sort of a battered and bruised reputation right now.

As for something that already has been mostly knocked down in DCA, when I see this photo, I find myself kind of laughing:

It shows something that now looks even more humorously flimsy, tacky and "doofus-y" than before the dismantling process began.

It would be fitting if the remnants of the titanium sun (or hubcap) and "CALIFORNIA," among other things, were trucked over to the front yards of Michael Eisner's and Barry Braverman's homes.

Kind of looks like they are building Soarin' over the sun plaza.
