Copyright Term Extension Act

It seems that the company played an important role in the "anti-PD" :-) lobbying, but this fact is not even mentioned. — Mikhail Ryazanov (talk) 09:30, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

Something that specific should be added to Criticism of The Walt Disney Company with perhaps a one-sentence summary aded here. --FuriousFreddy (talk) 07:26, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Figment

Is there any truth to Figment from Epcot actually being magenta. I ask because magenta is not a real color (I'm a physicist trust me)real colors can be made of a pure frequency, magenta is the color our mind creates when our yellow and blue cone receptors are stimulated in our eyes. Therefore making magenta a FIGMENT of our imagination. If anyone was going to make an inside joke that is related to science it would be Disney. I don't know if this was the actual intention, just a happy coincidence, or if this is just me reading to much into this and he is really just purple. ~Thanks 76.16.18.252 (talk) 01:21, 11 April 2012 (UTC)Ben

If you're a physicist, you should know that purple is also not a "real" color, as it's the combination of red and blue wavelengths. Regardless, any color our eyes can perceive is a real color, whether it represents a single wavelength of light or not. Powers ^T 23:24, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Good point! Purple is the range of extra extra-sensory color on the old RYB color system used by painters before Albert Munsell made the scientific color scales RGB and CMYK in which magenta is the extra-sensory color. 76.16.18.252 (talk) 05:43, 12 April 2012 (UTC)Ben

Still the point remains, was Figment purposfully made purple/magenta with the understanding that the color is only created in our mind? Does anyone even know where to start looking for this information? Thanks 76.16.18.252 (talk) 05:43, 12 April 2012 (UTC)Ben

Edit request on 18 November 2012

The first sentence under "2005–present: The Iger era" accidentally has the word "January" twice. Sevenhabitsfan (talk) 21:14, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

Done I removed that sentence completely, since it was a fragment and a complete sentence appears later on. RudolfRed (talk) 21:57, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
