know what i think it is?? fear and jealousy. people are afraid of new things. they were afraid of rock and roll, Elvis, computers, you name it. MF is new and different and people are afraid of it. "It's to protect the CHILDREN!" is the rallying cry, but keep in mind, most children won't even ride it when they are still children. i also think that people who don't/won't/can't ride coasters are just plain jealous deep down inside and so they have to spoil everyone's fun. i hope to God that no one ever gets hurt on MF(not even a hangnail), because that will be the end of MF and anything like it. the lobbying and the pressure to eliminate it would become HUGE and we would have a "Banshee" all over again, just on a greater scale.
