Mindflipper - I was very young but I also remember the World Key Information system. Part of the fun in making a dinner reservation was that you got to use one of those screens to actually talk to a cast member to their face without having to walk all the way to one of the countries. Every time I leave Spaceship Earth now I remember when I was younger singing Tomorrow's Child then using one of those kiosks.

Thanks for the link. I remember EPCOT before the 'gravestones' and really liked the open feeling of the plaza. Many nostalgics want the old Horizons and World of Motion attractions back. Truth be told though, those rides were never busy and skipped by many. Their replacements are a much bigger draw, especially Test Track. I wonder how much longer Universe of Energy can last.

Pluto23 - Yeah, I like the Universe of Energy but the drawback for me is how long it is. My kids get bored after the dinosaurs...

Its an every 4-5 trip attraction for me, unless it is raining or I need a cat nap.
