5	Daannzzz Wed 2/8/2006 8:27p	I must confess that my heart sank a little upon reading the headline. But I am enouraged that there may be a book or two a head and hopefully WDI does call upon you for something speacial. Thanks for all the great memories of your times with Disney as well as those advenures away from them.
6	avromark Wed 2/8/2006 8:28p	Dear Bob, Thank-you very much for these columns. I read everyone of the columns back in the archive. They were/are one of my favourite columns regardless of topic. It is simply amazing to get an inside look at the workings of disneyland/attractions/wdi etc. The columns also gave me the opportunity to see into the personality of a valued Disney employee. It made me appreciate all your work, knowing that a caring person was behind the work. It is also very inspiring to see people active for so long. One of the people I look up to is a lady named Hazel who has been mayor for longer then i've been alive (since 78 I beleive) of a city of over half a million. I hope one day that I can look back and see that I have contributed as much as people like you have. I also hope that I can enjoy my passions well past retirement date. Seeing your custom RV also showed me how much people like you, Walt Disney and others are very much "normal people" who are down to earth. To see that you don't need a mega million dollar deisel pusher based on a Prevost or something, and get along with a nice B-Class unit that's been around for awhile. For me this is an inspiration to see "an everyday" non degreed to death, non high and mighty person can help make things that have brought joy and happiness to so many people. I would also like to steal some of Bob's lime light for a moment and thank people like Doobie who helped so many of us meet Bob. It's nice to be surrounded by Uncle Walt, Uncle Bob, and all the other people that have given us a special place. And we look forward to encore Designer Times, even though you'll be busy we're sure that you'll have time to let us know whats happening. Even if it's just a yearly paragraph. In many ways this experience has made it seem like we (the general public who have been lucky enough to find this column) was a part of the creation and ingenuity. I hope that you will see this message, along with the countless others expressing our thanks. It's amazing that you did this for so many years. I was never one for writing letters, so forgive me how lame this may sound. It is a sincere gratitude for having so many articles written over the years. Although you won't be here, you won't be forgotten. I do hope to hear occasionally a paragraph or two. It would be nice to know "Hey i just enjoyed going to Tokyo, I just curled in Edmonton, during the last year I dug a tunnel to the centre of the earth and found Atlantis..." Sincerly, Mark One of your many "nephews" Hey I can dream i'm part of the Disney family right?

8	trekkeruss Wed 2/8/2006 8:38p	Bob, thank you so much for sharing your memories with us; it was a true pleasure to read them. Best wishes to you. :)

10	FigmentMI Wed 2/8/2006 11:00p	Bob, there aren't really words, but nonetheless thank you for sharing with us. Your columns were a glimpse into an amazing life, and a true inspiration. They were bar none my favorite part of the web. I'd also like to thank you again for using my question for one of your columns. I look forward to any further writing, speaking, and especially creating that you do. Don't be a stranger!
