Yahoo is clueless

I looked up roller coasters in Yahoo's search, and it describes Gemini as a twin tracked WOODEN roller coaster, and then shows Mean Streak. And Gemini isn't even wooden.

Here's the link:

I used a book once where they displayed a picture of Mean Streak contrary to the caption that said it was the Magnum, the Mean Streak is always substituted for everything. Watch in a couple of years they'll display a picture of Mean Streak instead of MF. :)

Speaking of which, did anyone else notice the little goof on page 32 of Michigan Living?

Yes, Magnum is sinking--and there was more than just the photo goof, too. Though I don't have the issue anymore, there was something about "an overbanked 22-degree turn" (do these people not know what "overbanked" means, regardless of context?) as well as another completely absurd factual error, if I recall correctly.

Yahoo said that the riders on Gemini go through a loop, for crying out loud!

I am sorry but some people need to grow up. So what Yahoo! didn't get the technical names right. I used to think Gemini was Wooden too. Think of Yahoo! as the General public

Yahoo! is a place where you look up information so of course it has to be accurate!! Would you like getting the wrong information when your planning a trip?

When something is used for factual information, the information they provide really does need to be accurate. Yahoo! is not the general public, it is the encylopedia that the general public looks up information like that. I completely agree, Shorti, how would you like to look something up and be told wrong? Maybe you're someone who only rides true wooden coasters, then you would be disappointed when you went to Cedar Point.

You mean if you were planning a trip to Cedar Point, you would actually search Yahoo! for their roller coaster? That doesn't make since. Also, if I was planning a trip I would go to...hmmm www.cedarpoint.com. Oh well they mixed a picture up (But they do seem kinda stupid when they say 2 trains racing and there is only 1 train on the track).

Also the last time I checked, they said Cedar Point had 12 coasters and 57 rides...
