Just over a week until we find out...the suspense is building.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I've been away from the computer for about two weeks since I have to go through hell and back with calling Dell so I forgot about this for awhile.

I just put a "meeting" in my Lotus Notes calendar at work for 11am EST on the 10th just in case someone sends me an invite for that time slot. Might be the only meeting I will actually enjoy that day!!

Well if you give into the rumors that just hit the Disney sites yesterday then you are looking at this:

" For a while it seemed like there were as many theories to what was behind the mysterious Are You 23? buzz campaign as there were people theorizing. Everything from the Walt Disney Company being founded in 1923 to Pixar’s 23rd birthday to 23 films being released from the vault on the fateful day (possibly all on BluRay) to some special club akin to Disneyland’s Club 33 and then some. Now the buzz all seems to be focusing on some semi-exclusive online club in which members get first access to various news, events and merchandise for a ‘modest’ annual fee. Only March 10 will know for sure, but until then, photos of these D23 pins have been making the rounds as of late."

Fateful day, hah. I love how they make it sound like the apocalypse is to follow.

Interesting, though first access to news doesn't seem worth the fee - it'll be out online in no time!

Still intrigued until the official announcement...

*Off Topic: Excellent avatar as usual, doctor. You managed to get your title spot on!
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

But me, I signed up and will wait to find out, either way! :wink:
I hope for their sake it is a big deal, otherwise they're gonna have a lot of annoyed people in interwebz land. Though I wouldn't put it past them to have botched it by not realizing the audience they have online; their website certainly suggests they still don't 'get' the internet.
Yes, I agree, I hope this isn't botched, Disney can't get internet, and ya think they would! I feel like they are missing a great outlet too!

2 and a half days left. I hope it is something and that it doesn't turn out to be more hype and very little substance.

I hope this isn't something casual like a vacation club or the like. [edit] I just (for the first time) ran across a link for Disney Club 33. Do you think this is something similar?

Finally, the rumors will be at rest in about 23 hours. Let's meet up in the chat room tomorrow morning to discuss.

Okay, this may be weird, but I just went to the www.disney.com/23 site to see the countdown, and now it is set for noon tomorrow. I guess they didn't figure in the time change over the weekend. As my DW would say, "Only you would recognize a detail that small." To which I usually reply, "It's a small world, afterall." :goofy_bounce:

Can someone tell me what DVC is? I entered my email and am looking forward to hearing to finding out.
