So what's the census? Meet for breakfast at 7 at either IHOP or Dennys, then meet at the giant L at say 8:30?
Good lord! I guess you folks are early risers. I wasn't planning on getting there until 10 (they open at 9)

On a not-so-busy day, you can do both parks pretty easily. However, seeing as some people have never been, I'm sure they're going to want to go on pretty much everything. 
As far as I know, the only ride that will be closed is Splash Mountain, since it's going under construction. And sorry, but the Finding Nemo subs won't be open yet.

I'd be all for sharing a cab ride. It's a pretty good distance from downtown LA, isn't it? What do you think the fare would be?

Perhaps those we travel to Disney from downtown can meet somewhere downtown (near the convention center, as we are in that vicinity anyways?)
We can meet, I dont know, half an hour or an hour in advance (I got no idea how long it'll take to reach Disney) and share cabs and company.

It's not the far - only about 28 miles from downtown. Here are options:
You can call Yellow Cab at (877) 733-3305 to get a firm quote. If you look at their website it's about $2.35 a mile; at least that's the way it looks to me with my poor math skills  . They may also be able to set something up for you akin to a private shuttle -- that's something to look into. That way the cab would be waiting.
Rent a car. Hertz has locations at the Sheraton and the Marriott downtown. You can't pick it up until 7:00 AM, and you would have to return it the next day because the office will be closed by the time you got back. The cost for a minivan at Hertz is around $80.00 for the 24 hour rental, and that will hold 7 people.

I'll be staying in Anaheim from the 21st - 24th so I won't have to worry about Transportation...
But I was wondering if we could do some sort of roll-call? The first post hasn't been updated in 2 months
PS - I'll be there with my wife Mara_Jade_Raven

Another suggestion is to take the Amtrak train. It's $10 each way from Los Angeles to Anaheim. It's a 40 minute train ride from Los Angeles to Anaheim. The first train leaves LA at 6am.
Disneyland's open until 8pm on Wednesdays, and the last train leaves Anaheim at 10:18pm.
The only problems comes in getting to the train stations. LA Union Station is 3 miles away from the convention center. That's not too much for a taxi. Anaheim station drops you off next to Edison Park (Angels Stadium) and is 2 miles from Disneyland. Again, not much for a taxi.

From what I saw on the Disneyland site they are actually open until 9 PM that night. Starting that week it looks like they start their extended summer hours to gear up for the Memorial Day - Labor Day rush.

Nope, still 8pm. Linky.
Bust we're not going on a weekend. Staying until midnight is fun.

But the Metrolink train will only take you to Union Station. You still have to go on Amtrak after that. The Metrolink trains do not go to Disneyland directly.
I've found another way:
Ride METRO BUS 460 (DISNEYLAND) heading south
From: FLOWER ST/11TH ST(NW corner) (VK edit: this is near the Convention Center)
To: EAST SHUTTLE RDWY/DISNEYLAND
Ending at DISNEYLAND
Total cash fare = $2.25
Trip distance is about 40.17 miles.
Headsign Day Leaving Arriving Trip Time
DISNEYLAND we 04:41AM 06:14AM 1 hr, 33 mins
DISNEYLAND we 05:05AM 06:41AM 1 hr, 36 mins
DISNEYLAND we 05:31AM 07:09AM 1 hr, 38 mins
DISNEYLAND we 05:57AM 07:42AM 1 hr, 45 mins
DISNEYLAND we 06:28AM 08:16AM 1 hr, 48 mins
DISNEYLAND we 06:55AM 08:46AM 1 hr, 51 mins
DISNEYLAND we 07:25AM 09:15AM 1 hr, 50 mins
DISNEYLAND we 07:53AM 09:42AM 1 hr, 49 mins
DISNEYLAND we 08:21AM 10:09AM 1 hr, 48 mins
DISNEYLAND we 08:51AM 10:37AM 1 hr, 46 mins
DISNEYLAND we 09:20AM 11:06AM 1 hr, 46 mins
DISNEYLAND we 09:50AM 11:36AM 1 hr, 46 mins
DISNEYLAND we 10:20AM 12:06PM 1 hr, 46 mins
DISNEYLAND we 10:44AM 12:30PM 1 hr, 46 mins
METRO BUS 460 (DOWNTOWN LA - 6TH-MAIN)
From: HARBOR BL/DISNEYLAND EAST MAIN SHUTTLE ENT(SW corner)
To: FIGUEROA ST/11TH ST(SE corner)
Ending at FLOWER ST/11TH ST
Total cash fare = $2.25
Trip distance is about 39.10 miles.
