Yesterday was the day the lights almost went out here at Planet7.org, home to EPCOT's Universe of Energy Companion Site. Faced, as many of us are right now, with the looming economic crisis, we were unable to keep the site going. For the first time ever, in more than six and a half years of operation, we had to ask for donations. We're happy to say that not only were the immediate needs of the site met, but that with several generous donations, we'll be able to keep the site going for the near future. We'd like to thank those who offered financial assistance when we needed it, as well as those who sent kind words, well wishes, and other offers of help. It's extremely gratifying to know that our hard work and labor of love is so appreciated. We'd also like to say that, while life keeps getting in the way, we do have an update for the site planned. As extensive as this site is, the Energy story hasn't fully been told yet. There's still the Cast Member perspective, more Ride & Show Technology, and our ultimate goal--to to reach beyond the attraction, to the actual message of the attraction. That's right, we're looking at telling the bigger story, the story for which the attraction could only whet your appetite, and encourage you to explore and learn more. We look forward to EPCOT's Universe of Energy Companion Site being that place to explore and learn. We can't offer a timeline, but we do ask that you stay tuned. As always, the adventure is just beginning, and we're thrilled that you're along for the ride!
