I've always wondered why, while they never could get them working right in Tomorrowland (and have now replaced them all with oh-so-futuristic stairs) ... there was rarely a problem with the one in Haunted Mansion, operating constantly since 1969.

i'm not certain, but wonder if constant exposure to weather and the elements had something to do with it. on occasion, mansion's ramp was down... and the indoor Space speedramp was always down. so, on second thought, maybe weather had nothing to do with it. perhaps people would get hurt/trip/fall and CM's would simply stop them, or, hooligans discovered the e-stop button and would do it.

hmm, and here i thought i had an answer when i started this post. LOL

but, off topic, i'm all a twitterpated --i'm going on a Matterhorn walkthough -- or is it an expedition?
