Thanks for that comment! I use Chrome and it didn't look TOO bad, but I did adjust it to show black text and be italicized. Hopefully this makes it stand out a little bit more. Nitpicking and general critiquing/criticism (and of course praise) is something I am looking for! Please (to everyone as well), do not ever feel like anything is too insignificant! As time goes on )hopefully) this will get better and better! Thanks for the comments and by the way, welcome to my site! I hope everyone tells their dis-friends about my site/article and looks forward to the next one!

Does anyone have any suggestions for the next ride to profile? I think I'd like to stay in Tomorrowland. If everyone is really dying for a different attraction, with enough votes, it can be done!

If you want to stay in Tommorowland...

I would vote for Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin.

It's building that has housed several different attractions...and people still like what is there now...as opposed to MILF and Stitch. You can also do a small section comparing it to BL's Astro Blasters out in DLR...how they are similar and different and all that. I dunno...seems like a fun attraction to get some extra info on.

I'd just like to say, "Thank You" for doing what we all wish we could do. I love studying history, and especially Disney Parks history. You putting it in once place makes my life easier. Keep up the good work!

Oddly enough, I don't think the Mi Laugh Floor has opened up in any other park, has it?

I think WDW is the only one.

They also have Crush...which uses similar technology. Does any other park have anything like these?

Just thought about the Main Street Electrical Parade as an idea... Would love to know the history, floats added subtracted and it's travels around the world.....

I think they brought Turtle Talk to DCA, and it still runs in the animation building. They didn't put any milfs in DLR because there is nowhere to house them.

I would love to read one on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride and the controversy surrounding the closure and the movement to try to keep it open.
