Going to be in pain...

...if something as small as a wasp hits you at 120mph. Does anyone else think that the seats on the trains should be sheilded. One things for sure, I will not ride this ride without protection over my eyes!

You won't be hurt any more than you would on MF, WT, or Magnum, or any other ride for that matter. The force of the wind comming from the train might also push objects away. Think about swating at a gnat with your hand, you think you got it, but in reality it got pushed out of the way.

never thought of that.. just never go there may-early june thats the worst time for bugs
There's water nearby too. Under Iron Dragon. I think that means Mosquitos.
Thats weird, I don't recall ever having a problem with mosquitos at CP...

I don't care abou bugs, just as long as they don't bite or sting. If they leave me alone, I won't want to kill their kind. :)

Maybe they'll sell west nile shots in line the way they do dry bags on the wet rides :)

Oh goody, I wont have to pay for dinner after riding! Muffleheads anyone? Or would you prefer mayflies?
You won't find mosquitoes at Cedar Point because mosquitoes need stagnant water to breed. The lagoons are used by the PWE boats, and are in a big circle. This constant water movement prevents mosquitoes from breeding. Midges and muffleheads, on the other hand, are fair game for all.

What is most anticipated event of 2003? the debut of # 16, the release of Metallica's new album, the release of Terminator 3, or the release of Matrix:Reloaded...tough call.

What? Have you been to Cedar Point? Have you not noticed the standing water on the roof of every other building? Not to mention that the lagoons, especially in Frontier Town, have standing water everywhere.

Mufflehead season will be the biggest problem. You might want to wear a poncho.
