Rilous Carter, the current VP at Disney’s Hollywood Studios will be moving to the same position in EPCOT and Dan Cockerell, the current VP at EPCOT will be moving to the same position at DHS.

And so, I was excited to read The Epcot Explorer’s Encyclopedia – a book that’s devoted entirely to Epcot.
