We usually do, too, but this time we just had the really big ones. Those don't work well with tiny teeth.

before the magic band, I always took several as well. Don't have to worry about getting my wallet wet anymore unless the wall safe springs a leak.
That’s interesting. I lost my very first tooth at WDW.

I appreciate you adding the last sentence.
Meh, I'll just wait until the 25th.

That's my take as well.
I'm betting that consumer backlash from the idea of Disney handing out those "evil plastic monsters" has forced them to reconsider the whole project.
IMO someone in Disney's Advertising department got a butt chewing from Disney's Environmental Police over the whole project.
The fine line between saving the World and making money has become more difficult to balance upon.

Not sure if it qualifies as News, but the DoubleTree Suites Disney Springs Area was evacuated this evening. That's where I'm staying this week, so this is first-hand account.
Smoke was reported on the second floor. The Reedy Creek Fire Department showed up en masse. I saw three of the largest fire engines, four ambulance-sized trucks, at least six other Reedy Creek vehicles, and more fire people than you could count. We were outside at least 1.5 hours while they checked the entire building. Unofficially, the source of the smoke wasn't found.
Years ago when I was a hotel Night Manager, I had to order an evacuation due to a chemical leak. I don't envy the staff who now have to deal with complaints. (Although, I certainly won't complain because safety overshadows inconvenience.) I remember I was stuck filling out tons of paperwork after my evacuation.

Very sad to hear this, as a Disney fan, pilot, and CTO
Hate to see fellow technologists and pilots pass like this. Tailwinds on your flight west.
