any positives about president's week?

HELP!

We're planning a trip to WDW in February. We will be visiting the parks on 2/15 through 2/19, with President's day right in the middle. I've heard lots of negatives about the crowds, although I'm sure they are not as bad as Easter or June (been there both times). Can anybody give me some good news about going during president's week?
Do the crowds thin out some after President's Day (Monday)?

I have never been during that time, but I will bump this up so that those who have been can give you some advice about the crowds!

We were there this past President's week. We loved it. It was crowded, but it was manageable. The thing we loved most about that whole week was sitting by the pool while NJ was shoveling out 22 inches of snow. The weather was very pleasant, near 80 all week. We used fast pass and since we bought into DVC we no longer tour commando style, so if it got too crowded, we just headed back to the hotel. We enjoyed it, and plan on returning whenever I get off that week from school again. Hopefully, that means 2004, so maybe we'll see you there.

Us too!! We loved it. We arrived Sunday Night and went home Thursday. Sunday night we did a 1900 Park Fare and EWP plus a quick look around our resort. Monday we did MGM in the am and Epcot at night. It really wasn't horribly crowded, though we did see it get lighter as the week went on. It was tough going home to the 22" of snow
