Browntggrr Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 It's not that TTD's theming was not kept up, it literally had to be removed due to safety before it removed itself. But again, CP does not market itself as a theme park. A true comparison of seasonal theme parks would be BGW & the former PKI. Dislike? Detest? Tomato? Tomato? Gotcha. 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 No. Dislike/detest a person's management actions and style. Not the person himself. There is a huge difference. There are also opposite instances. There are some people in this industry who are fantastic managers that I can't imagine liking as a person. Mr. Kinzel is a very likable guy, doubtless a great father, etc. But his last years as a manager I, and others, do not see as his best years. To be kind. No tomatoes thrown at Mr. Kinzel as a person. Not even nickels. As for TTD, my point is also a different one. Mr. Kinzel greenlighted TTD's theming even after Disaster Transport. 2 Quote

The Interpreter Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 Not to mention unitholders he tried to force out at $11.50 per unit while retaining an internal position and/or parting gifts... 2 Quote

Browntggrr Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 ^ It should be noted that I was not being critical of grammar in any way. Just a "lost in translation" between two respectful parties. Quote
The Interpreter Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 Indeed. Brown is a person of strong, well reasoned opinions. I have the utmost of respect for him, and for his insights and counsel. Now, did I miss TWO parties? 1 Quote
