got a call from Brian Ramsey of Mouse Surplus the other day. Who insisted that -- the very next time that I was down at Walt Disney World -- that I had to come by his new 1500 Tradeport Drive location and check out MS's new super-sized set-up.

And that was the plan, anyway. That -- as soon as I arrived at Orlando International Airport -- I'd first pick up my rental car and then make the five minute drive over to Mouse Surplus' new home. So that I could finally see this enormous warehouse that Brian keeps talking about.

But -- as soon as I walked in the door -- Mr. Ramsey had something really special to show me. It was a box full of film strips & old acetates that he had harvested from of Epcot's "Horizons" as that old Future World pavilion was being torn down to make way for "Mission: Space".

And as I held these thin pieces of plastic up to the light, some very familiar images from this long-gone Epcot icon once again appeared. How a number of of you recall.

this image from Jules Verne's "From the Earth to the Moon"? Which used to be projected along the side of the ride track inside of this Future World attraction?.
