Reply to comment by smallz86 in TIL that Walt Disney World began as "The Florida Project". Dummy corporations were used, by Walt Disney Productions, to buy up 27,000 acres of land to avoid bursts of land speculation in the Orlando area. Early rumors assumed possible development by NASA, Ford, the Rockefellers, and Howard Hughes. by jdward01

Of course it's not accurate, anyone with common sense would know that. Unfortunately common sense isn't a common trait of the citizens of lapeer County
