Sigh. There you go, dissing the poor, unappreciated Imagineers again, for something as insignificant as maintainability. I bet you didn't even notice that the wood exactly matches the paneling in John Lasseter's Burbank office. Obviously you know nothing about designing theme park attractions. |

Take it from someone who spends more time in the Asia parks like Hong Kong and Tokyo where those motorized wheelchairs don't exist only to come back to America and SHOCKED by all the people rolling these things around Anaheim and yes, I was nearly hit by one last year myself lol.
I don't know, I wish people actually spend time walking and getting some exercise around the parks and save those carts for people who REALLY needs them. |

Why do Americans think its incredibly difficult if not impossible to lose weight? It really isn't rocket science how to control ones weight. Step 1. Stop snorting cheesecake. Step 2. Move. |

Wed 5/21/2008 7:18a | One thing I notice though is lack of infrastructure. Here in Europe, you can pretty much walk everywhere, safely. Not true in the US. Between distances, safety concerns and heat, that can be an impediment.
Also, a kid's coke at McD's in LA is the same size as a large adult's here in Europe!!! Extraordinary.
Do people realise that 1 big gulp contain's an adult's allowance of calories? Wow! |

Sorry dave you must have your facts mixed up unless adults are only supposed to consume 800 calories a day.
One 64oz. "DOUBLE BIG GULP" size cup = 59 teaspoons sugar & 800 calories
Still way too many calories, I eat healthy just so I can drink my 6 sodas a day and keep a decent figure. |

Wed 5/21/2008 11:13a | I know I am morbidly obese, and man it is really hard work to lose weight. Personally if I ever get to the ECV stage, it's game over for me. |

Wed 5/21/2008 11:15a | Ok William, but considering I was on a 1000 cal diet last year, that's still a lot! |

LOL!! Sorry, but that visual was funny. |
