Yay! Okay now for a tough one... that I am sure will be gotten in no time.
How did the concept for the Soarin' ride design come about? Who came up with it?

They as a team were trying to figure out how to make it all work, and he eventually thought of his old erector set in his house. He fiddled around with it, and created a mini-replica of the ride which eventually became Soarin'.

I know it was made by using an old erector set over Thanksgiving weekend, but I forget the name of the guy who came up with the design...

Woo-hoo! Sorry I'm slow getting online, all. Life.
Here's my trivia question. I have not read all of this thread, so let me know if it's a repeat and I'll ask something else.
In Mickey's PhilharMagic in the Magic Kingdom, Donald Duck's dialogue lines were mostly taken from old cartoon shorts. Name the cartoons the lines came from, and tell me which line was from each cartoon.
(I expect this will take some research, but try to guess it on your own if you are a Donald/older cartoons expert
).

I don't recall Donald's lines in Philharmagic, as it's been 2 years since I've seen it. unless there are scripts online somewhere for both Philharmagic AND all the cartoon Shorts he was in, this question is probably nearly impossible...

Donald has dialogue lines in that? Beyond his usual "aghrblslslslsllsr!" stuff? Huh. 
Seriously, though, I think the only thing I remember him saying is "Thank you!", to Jasmine. I have no shot at this question. o.o

And he also says "Wheres my hat" quite a lot but I wouldnt know where exactly that would fit in his cartoon shorts. I would have to see it again to figure out this answer without looking it up online and cheating.
I know this is probably your first flight...and it's mine too...ha, ha

Sorry folks, that was a bad one. I should've asked who was the voice of Donald for most of the film. And now I can't even find the document on my computer that I had saved months ago that listed the lines/cartoons.
It was published in the Ultimate Guide to WDW book and discussed a lot on the 'net amongst Donald fans. Apologies for the bad question. I'm still a newbie at this.
Ducky Nash did all of the dialogue for PhilharMagic by way of the old cartoon archives. Cartoons included "Good Scouts." Tony Anselmo, the current voice, did the Beauty & the Beast segment where Donald hums along to "Be Our Guest."
New question (again, tell me if this has already been asked): Who is the voice of Big Al in Country Bear Jamboree?
