1.   It is their right to determine the criteria for their entertainers.
2.   It adds to the atmosphere (huck fin, etc.)   Disney land differs from many
     other parks (Are you listening, Great America?) in this respect; it is not
     merely a collection of rides.  Even they, though, could use a few more
     ride attendants that are better at entertaining in the mean time.  ("Has
     anyone seen a blond haired, blue eyed girl, about age eighteen.  If so,
     I'd like to meet her"  from the operator of the raft ride with a long
     line.)
3.   At Great America last summer, I saw their "Evolution II" show.  White
     members of the "Supremes" black "Beatles," etc.  not so convincing.
