    Hey now, flat land isn't all bad

    Walt Disney chose Orlando as the spot for Walt Disney World BECAUSE of Florida's abundance of flat land

    I lived in Florida. The flatness is not a particularly flattering quality of the land.

    you know, anytime I travel east, I'm always stunned by how ubiquitous trees and lakes and rivers are

    Ohio is really, really flat but...yeah we're constantly surrounded by trees, creeks, and rivers.

    Lakes, not so much, unless you count man-made lakes.

    As for the question you posed, prairie is a nice change of scenery from the lush Ohio greenery when I visit Colorado. Also: prairie dogs!! So cute.

    this is the only time I like anything flat, though

    It has been mathematically proven that Kansas is flatter than a pancake.

    I mean we went to my grandmother's old homestead, and had to offroad across like 10 miles of sagebrush.

    this goes for the Eastern Shore, too, where the only hills are for the bridge approaches

    Jerk drained the swamp, destroying a wetland.

    I hate him forever.

    building Disneyland on top of something is less destroying it and more desecrating it

    desecrating it is the spiritual meaning part

    destroying is the erasing the whole local ecosystem and putting something else in its place part

    He built Disneyland on top of a grove

    He built Disney World on top of a swamp

    No

    After Charles Mintz fired him he and his brother Roy packed up and started the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio with the power of good old-fashioned American enterprise. He then created Mickey Mouse with the dreams of every living human being and made "Steamboat Willie," the first sound cartoon and a masterpiece of animation. Then he bet everything he had on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the greatest film of all time for which the Academy cruelly denied him an Oscar. This started the tradition of great Disney animated cinema, and set in stone that only Walt Disney Productions knows how to do animation properly.

    Then he ripped off his shirt and built Disneyland in Anaheim, California with his bare hands. He worked long hours in the hot California sun, toiling away, making his vision reality. But he tragically died before he could personally oversee replication of its success in Florida - a location he chose when he noticed that a small minority of Disneyland's visitors came from east of the Mississippi.

    Fifty years dead, Walt's spirit looks down at what is now christened The Walt Disney Company, and is overjoyed that his legacy lives on.

    I'd reference Escape From Tomorrow, but Tony Goldmark and Wikipedia told me I'm not allowed to like that movie
