I think TSM was the start of a "building" plan for DHS. The whole Pixar Place was hopefully the plan to make DHS more appealing and a full-day park.

Um, just my opinion: They could have given it more attention. I don't like the video screens or the script. Since they didn't rip out all of the animatronics, put in a bunch of 3D screens and Pixar characters - I'm willing to accept the the new descent video piece (see how Imagineering has beaten m...

Just the WDW transportation buses? Not Magical Express or Disney Cruise (which are actually owned/run by Mears)?

If we're talking just WDW transportation, I'm going to say 197

WoL is frequently used for paid and private events (ie Food & Wine HQ). It is, I believe, under the control of Special Events. I'm hopeful that in the next 3-5 years it's put back into service as a pavilion - but I'm not holding my breath. Lots of good ideas for it from forum members - move CoP ...

I wish I had the video camera for that one. It really was hysterical. I would say just keep going on the ride over and over again. The skippers all have their own thing and there is really never a long wait for it. It was a 60 minute wait for us last summer so we never rode... missed it, too. Love ...

I'd live in Southern Cal. Orange, Anaheim, Santa Ana area... not in LA proper but try to stay about an hour south or so.

Not too many earthquakes, less smog at some level and beautiful weather. I'd happily do it if I could afford a house and to live there.

Nothing in relationship to our big trip plans. Disney every 2-3 years (2010 next trip) and our annual trip to the NCAA Ice Hockey championship - yet. We do pay much closer attention to if it is cheaper to fly/drive though. Try to do the most cost effective. We've curbed all auxillary trips though. I...

I would imagine they'll be back in service shortly. Doesn't appear to have been too big of quake in damage as it was deep in the ground (7+ miles).

Also one of my dad's favorites (as is Splash at WDW). I don't think it will ever be released from the vault.
