Personally, I usually subscribe to the: <i>"less is more"</i> philosophy.Nanookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255357829181568172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-72454040073771164032012-10-25T12:53:03.687-07:002012-10-25T12:53:03.687-07:00Nanook, I love the speech, but must have heard it ...Nanook, I love the speech, but must have heard it too many times. One podcast I listen to plays it EVERY episode as an intro to a segment, for instance. I wish they would stop it!<br /><br />Rich T, I have played with some stereo images that just don't seem to work in glorious Wigglevision, and these were some of those images.<br /><br />Katella, it does look like the palm frond was allowed into the frame on purpose, but it's still a bad composition with 1/3 of the image consisting on empty cement.<br /><br />K. Martinez, I remember the first time I saw the actual kinescope footage of the opening day ceremonies, and MAN did I wish I could have seen it in person!Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-77784848149038919852012-10-25T09:16:56.101-07:002012-10-25T09:16:56.101-07:00The dedication speech is burned into my memory too...The dedication speech is burned into my memory too. It brings back warm childhood memories of watching Walt Disney introduce his weekly TV show when he was still alive. Something about his voice was comforting and magical.K.

Especially when you see the original kinescope of the reading of the dedication speech, it all seemed so matter-of-fact, almost being a ho-hum moment of the opening day festivities.<br /><br />But that 'moment in time' and what it came to represent, has few equals. Although a dream in Walt's mind for many years, it was a few short years of real planning and a scant 12 months of construction, almost to the day, and look what the world was about to behold on that now famous day of July 17, 1955. And that was <i>merely</i> the beginning. Man-o-man-!!Nanookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255357829181568172noreply@blogger.com
