sounds like lots of construction going on this winter in the "theme park" areas here in the states.

From what I can release so far: Oceans of Fun will get an upgrade to a current attraction.  Worlds of Fun is removing an attraction and will be adding a MAJOR attraction that will feature some things not seen on other rides like it.

What's sucks more than building a new $8 million swing ride just to be told by the state of California that they don't approve of the evac platform? Having to spend more money to dismantle it, move it to Missouri, and construct it again...

So you'd rather just leave it SBNO?  That doesn't make much sense.

If by "defense" you meant "sound logic", then yes.
Cal/OSHA is being extremely retarded about the whole thing.  But considering the stupid stunts they pull on Disney all of the time, I guess that is to be expected.

Where Oh Where are you tonite?
Yes im talking about this forum. Where is it going? its just not the same anymore!

as far as the new ride at WOF. What can I say another SFSL/WOF battle.
Skyscreamer/steelhawk
Boomerang/boomerang
American Thunder/Prowler (OK these are certainly NOT identical coasters but appear to be the same in construction) I did NOT do my homework here (Please don't chew me up over this) My point with these coasters is just this. They appear to have the same planner and the same builder, not sure if they really do or not.

Onward---SFSL & WOF are different YES INDEED, but do have similarities throughout ------ which is why SDC is superior IMO. SDC has very little in common with these other 2 parks.

Chittlins- NO! I wasn't looking for true love.  Besides that (I heard) you met another (maybe that's why) your gone. 

Thank you for that response. That is partially what I was looking for. As well as the comparison of SFSL & WOF.
