NOW!!! Long Live VMK - Time Capsule / Frozen in Time Project!

Get all the details and updates at the DisBoard post here.

Would you like to have your feelings "frozen in time" so to speak when the gates close tomorrow night? If you do, please go into all your Guest Rooms and add "Long Live VMK", or the like, to the beginning of all your Room Names and if you want to go another steop further the Room Descriptions.

The room names will be frozen in some Guest Room database and who knows, the DIG might do market research on their other worlds (i.e. see which rooms were popular, trends, themes etc.) and lookie what they will find...little nuggets of our effort to Save VMK...frozen in time. A Virtual Time Capsule.

This also goes for changing your signature before the final close. (sniff).

If anyone has ideas on top of the above, please chime in!!!

And post here when you have completed your time capsule, to keep this guy bumped up and in plain view!!!

This project will continue to the bitter end folks! woot! (sniff on the woot...)

The Disney Execs obviously need to be hit over the head with all of this...they really don't get it...so let's get out there and E-MAIL!!!
