Yeah, when we did the TR:TR filmings in June, we were in the park around 7:30 or so. There were semi-trucks pulling up to the resteraunts. Now, I know those driver's can't see much, plus I was impressed by the fact that they could even get the trucks back there. I remember thinking that it was thunder every time the truck would hit the bridge in Rivertown. So anyway, if you're behind the ropes, and a truck comes, a lot of times there's nowhere to go.

Care to Share? I had the same speil. Basically the trick is to have the center of gravity always the same. So instead of climbing the ladder like you normally would, you do something like: Right hand, Right food, Left Hand, Left foot. If you switch back and forth, it screws up the center of gravity and makes it flip over.

Do you guys strictly patrol the park during the regular season, or do you hold down the fort during the off season too?

Ha, you heartless punks. As you read Dane's post, actually Shaggy's post, you were probably hoping that PKI didn't get sued. You muggles... Yeah, but that is sad that two men who went to rescue the guy in the fountain died or any of the victims. I don't mean to be heartless. In the business that PKI is in, they have to be a little on the apathetic side sometimes.

Oh, I agree with you totally. Hypothetically speaking, it's much nicer to think that an accident occured at the park as opposed to a death, which occured elsewhere as a result of the accident.

I assumed that there was something that they could advertise to the general public. Not everyone has kids. The kiddy attractions have to be a big draw. I mean, look at how they're advertising Scooby Doo when they got an awsome ride like Delirium.

Awsome use of the dictionary, Crispy! Thanks for the post, Dane. Oh yeah, and death can be determined on the scene, at least in KY. A paramedic can determine a DOA in this state, I'm not sure about Ohio though.

This question isn't intended in bad taste at all, but was anyone in the park the fateful day when 3 people lost their lives? A friend of mine was there, but all he remembers is that it was kind of chaotic. I'm just curious as to how the park would handle a situation like that. -Ryan

Does anyone know what they advertised as the big attraction in 2001? According to the history on this web page, it quotes: "2001 -- Kings Mill Log Flume returns completely overhauled and re-themed as a Nickelodeon adventure. Flight of Fear receives new lapbar restraints, replacing the old OTSRs making the ride more enjoyable." I don't remember the Wild Thornberry's ride being advertised on TV. Was there a big attraction that year? I had a season pass in 2001, but I'm totally experienceing a 'brain fart'. Thanks, Ryan

What kind of training do they give you to be security at PKI?

What the heck, I'll do it. I'm 20. BoddaH1994@aol.com PM me for my home address. --Ryan

I'm sure he'd appreciate it if you didn't e-mail him with questions like that. He's a very busy man. When they're ready, they'll tell you.

awww, come on! I like this game. Give me another clue.

Oh, I totally agree that it should be done. Just make sure that it's got more of a "We're here to have fun, this is how we make sure everyone has fun" theme to it as opposed to a "While you're here, you WILL obey OUR rules" theme. They both get at the same points, but why have such a downer to start such a great day?

"Water water everywhere but not a drop to drink." -'Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner' Samuel Taylor Coleridge So this water, will someone be submerged in it, or will they be floating on it in some sort of craft?

Yeah, it does kind of have a "we're watching you" sound to it. Just make sure you end it on a positive note, and it'll be good.

<<They could also do delayed shots from earlier that day, you might be seen on the QTV!>> Now that is a pretty good idea. Call it QTV Vision.

Do the QTV screens play different things at the same time? I mean, it can't be the same throughout the park. It seems like I ALWAYS hear the promo for Greese while in line (well, walking to) Top Gun and while in line for The Vortex.

Wow, I thought you wouldn't see commercials if you watched your Tomb Raider DVD all day.. Sorry DanielRadsgrl, you knew you had that comin'.

Would you say that this non-coaster will be pleasing to the people on this board?

I already have done a ton of the Paramount Surveys. Don't you guys think they should have something easier, like maybe a drop box?

How accurate has this birdie been in the past?

Would you suggest that we go to GR a few times per season and let them know what they're doing right and wrong?

I wish it were possible to bring back the old intro from the Outer Limits days. Do you guys remember when they would say "We control the horizontal and the vertical" and the ship would project horizontal and vertical lines onto the wall? I wish they'd make it more with aliens and stuff as opposed to having bad actors playing milirtary people playing bad jokes on eachother.

Land value + rides/buildings/whatever + necessary rights to logos will probably be upwards of $500 million.
