I've said it from the beginning, the system was never targeted at the disney guru who goes 4 times a year and knows all the ins and outs of the parks. Its targeted at the family of 4 who has waited for the perfect time in their life to take their kids on the once in a lifetime disney vacation. And for them, its working.

It is really working? Do you know how many co-workers, friends & family members I've had to coach to get them to use the process successfully? (Rhetorical, Sardonic question - as its been about 4 )

My point being - its not that intuitive or easy to use. And it forces people to pay for the tickets ahead of time - so maybe it saves staffing at Guest Relations? Though last year there was a line there about 20 minutes long....... (MK)

I still want 5 fast passes a day to make me content :mickey: Yes I am a broken record.......

The article mentioned that the "thermostat" controlling TSM's air temperature also controlled the classified MDE room(s).

Just a thought.

That is correct. The article was updated to say it was a building near TSM, or possibly attached to such.
