I heard stories of employees 'surfing' on mylar or acetate cell's dumped by the hundreds in hallways. Nowadays, those (individually hand painted) cells from classic cartoons get huge buck$ from collectors.
I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing that we move on from our past like this. Too easy to become a hoarder, but shameful that we can no longer duplicate a moon launch that took place 40 years ago...
