Well, not everyone here has a knowledge of a broad range of Disney history, many of us focus on specific parts. I myself am a huge admirer of Walt Disney, so things like "Ear Force One" are not really that important to me.Mr. M wrote: Sorry I assumed a board full of Disney freaks (not a bad term) would know what ear-force one was.

Ear-Force One
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Lasolimu wrote:That's precisely my point, he never said they were the same thing, just that they both fall under the same regulations. And your post was towards hobie who was attempting to be philosophical and also didn't say a balloon was the same as an airplane. This was in response to you saying that the answer given was for the wrong thing, which was a response to me saying an answer was given. After it was determined that you were talking about the balloon, the person who answered hadn't confirmed at that point that they were mistaken, and there was no reason to believe they were also mistaken about what you meant and therefore no reason to believe the answer given to be incorrect.
In fact, looking back at the thread, no one ever said they were the same thing so I don't know where you got that idea in the first place.
My post was toward darph nader whom I quoted in my reply. Also the person that indicated they were the same thing.
See here is how the real world works. try to follow along if you can.
I said
"Um... I don't think an airplane is the same as a hot air balloon."
To which was replied
"I may be wrong,(sure as hell wont be the first time),but I'm pretty sure,if it 'flys' the FAA has jurisdiction."
Sounds to me like his reply is trying to prove my comment wrong, and say that since it flays and the FAA has jurisdiction, then it's the same thing.
Which is why I asked the entire community instead of PMing individuals.ktulu wrote:Well, not everyone here has a knowledge of a broad range of Disney history, many of us focus on specific parts.

perhaps you would have better luck going to board x, y, or z and asking someone that is so immersed in triva that they would understand your shorthand.
you could have stated like Chief Wild Eagle said: "It is Balloon."

If one does not know what exactly "ear-force one" is then why comment assuming it's a plane?
I asked on here thinking a bunch of Disney cast members would know before a board full of random fans. Guess I was wrong.
From now on I will be sure to dumb down my questions.

Re: Ear-Force One
Why does this all sound familiar???
Rabbit season... Duck season... Oh, yeah, that's why.
We now go dangerously off-topic <shudder> to offer an Official Marsupial Welcome™ to texasmouse!! (Where exactly in TX? I'm in Plano.)
