When you all talked about the mist effect in the Pirates ride, you mentioned how it isn't easy to see the projection. I remember when this effect was first installed, it was not only very clear, but the mist flowed in such a way that you almost couldn't tell it wasn't water. I remember not knowing that it was mist until I was right under it. It was very convincing, whereas now it doesn't look like it's meant to be anything other than mist-you wouldn't even know that the effect at one time had been done so that it legitimately looked like it was really a waterfall. I personally think it is a maintenance issue, and I was fully expecting that it was going to have been restored for the Blackbeard switchout. So I think anyone upset about the visibility has a right to bring it up, since there was this expectation that it would get some attention for this event.
