Is it a “Plus U” rather than a “T U” ?

And the IASW VIP narration that Amelia’s grandfather was working on!

Sharon you are very welcome! I watched it again last night. I had seen it before years ago. I hope to find more clues and youtube videos of Walt Disney getting ready for the 1964 World’s Fair.

I also feel that it has something to do with the alternate narration script for IASW that Amelia posted up (the one talking about connectivity and devices). This is all really interesting

Yes. We also noted that the two figures are holding cell phones, which all relates to the side A “hidden track” on the records Amelia sent out.

I don’t know if anyone has noticed the interconnected satellites on Wallace’s poster for IASW… Idk I just think they may be important. If anyone has any ideas about this let me know.

“Our Town” was inspiration for what was going to be Edison Square, Walt’s idyllic example of a future neighborhood showcasing various electric inventions and sponsored by GE. It was supposed to open in 1965 but was scrapped and its inventions moved to the Carousel of Progress. Kind of a random side note, but since you mentioned the play I thought I’d throw it out there…

Ray was once asked what he would like the future to look like, and he said “Disneyland.” That it was already a perfect embodiment of everything he hoped for the future. I agree with you that through their ideas and beliefs they have immortalized themselves, and this project will immortalized Amelia’s grandfather in the same way. Such a wonderful adventure we are all going on!

I just remembered, when Walt introduced the concept of IASW on the Disneyland 10th anniversary, he referred to it as a timepiece. When it was dedicated in the park, he narrates that nowhere is telling the time more fun ( paraphrasing grossly here). What if IASW is the fuel or the power behind the tomorrowland rides, not necessarily the electricity, but the energy behind the tomorrowland dreams, making them a reality. Only around our small world are ideas, dreams, and realities that orbit.

“Here age relives fond memories of the past…and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams, and the hard facts that created America…with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.”

Walt’s dedication of Disneyland represents all of the people whose names have been revealed to us so far.
