And yeah, I agree, I've always been equally, if not more, fascinated by any decent theme ride's "queue environment" as with the ride experience itself. The immersive art direction, ambient sound, and dialogue loops of, say, Disney's Jungle Cruise, and indeed the splendidly-realized Indiana Jones ride are often the unsung elements that truly help bring the ride to life. This guy's sense of humor also really appeals to me. "Really Bad Eggs". Wish I'd thought of that one. And I really admire the dedicated soul who takes a blowtorch to his work to get the Nth degree of authenticity. All that and Hidden Mickeys too. Fun stuff indeed... SOK
