Wrong way to skip Living Seas preshow

[safetymom]

I can't tell you how many times I ride the hydrolators and people talk about going down. They don't know the real story.

You don't really go back in time on the Carousel of Progress. Its just a spinning room that makes it seem like you are going back in time. Sorry if I ruined anyone's "magic".

From what I recently read on AllEarsNet, this won't be a problem for my family.........Living Seas will be closed for updating in October.

Do you know the closing date?

I guess I figured most everyone knew the "secret" here on the boards. Of course that's something I would never announce at the attraction, so as not to ruin the magic for others. But the funny thing is that in the 2004 version of Birnbaum's guide to WDW, he reveals the secret in his description of TLS.

Another reason not to go "up the down staircase" or make other unauthorized moves:

From turnto10. com (website of a TV station?) via tripso .com:

"NEWPORT, R.I. -- Activity aboard a Newport dinner cruise Tuesday night led to a homeland security check, during which four men were questioned and detained ...

"(a spokesman quoting) 'The captain said that one of them had unhooked the chain here (pointing to the chain on the boat)' ...

"... there were two other breaches of secured areas. One down a stairwell and another down another stairwell, where one of the men had his hand on the door marked 'Crew Only'.

... on the Carousel of Progress. Its just a spinning room that makes it seem like you are going back in time. Sorry if I ruined anyone's "magic".

The CoP preshow video, in the waiting area outside, tells you that. The room spins very slowly and makes stops, and you don't get dizzy.
