problems. For example, when Disney engineers place an order for
2,175 pieces of steel, each of a different length and weight, the steel
company's salesman was aghast. But, gradually, piece by piece,

with the proper amount of snow in just the right places."

motto is: 'We love to entertain kings and queens; but at Disneyland,
every guest receives the VIP treatment.'"
