Just got back from WDW. FIrst, the changes to the HM are wonderful (unlike the travesty that used to be the Mexico ride in Epcot). Second, we were there in that magical empty time right before Christmas, when normal people are still at work, and the cast members we encountered in the Mansion were amazingly great. I've encountered many in the past, but these guys (and they were males and not generic "guys", not to say that the gals wouldn't have been great, but we didn't interact with them this time) were truly amusing and wonderful. Not all of them spoke. One guy sort of sidled up next to me and just stood there and looked comically creepy. We loved him so much we dropped Disney a note when we got back commending his wonderful creepiness. We go every Christmas for exactly that random Disney magic. I would hate to see that spontaneous whimsy lost in the sea of corporate pc conformity.
