Back during 1966 Walt Disney had an idea for part of his theme
park in Florida. He planned for it to be an actual community and
called it EPCOT. Most folks have forgotten or never knew what
that meant or if it was just a word. On Disney World’s website,
“Epcot” actually is not written in all caps, which would suggest
that it is not an acronym. However, it is an acronym for
“Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow.” Now you know.
Incidentally, Walt
Disney might have been the first to put gloves on his
characters. In addition to being easier to animate, he also
did not want Mickey to have mouse hands, because he was
supposed to be more human.
