Not going to happen kiddies. First of all it's copyrighted, second of all, it's porn! The feds get really pissed when you start sending it around the Internet to minors.

Duh.

I understand it's copyrighted...but if the scan doesn't have anything bad in it, and just the article, that wouldn't be bad to send to minors.

**Playboy Executives** Ohh 4 people are going to see an article privately through e-mail with no porn that nobody in the world cares about except for a few CP fans...Let's bust them of copyright infringement!

Trust me...I have the magazine in my room right now and it's not that worth it. There are better drawings of it all over the internet and the "article" on it is a tiny paragraph just stating basic stats. It's not all that great.

The sad part about the Internet is kids' blatant disregard for intellectual property.

Go to the Cedar Point website, find the drawing of Wicked Twister, and enjoy yourself. It's just about the same thing.

I'm sure you'll probably see the exact same advertisement or a similar one in other magazines too.

The main reason magazines hit the stands and the mailboxes up to 2 or 3 months before their issue month is so they can sit on the stands longer and still be "current".

So says a magazine sales-rep I knew long ago . . .

Don't group me with those people...I get really pissed when someone doesn't even think about going to the store to buy a CD. Istead they download the whole album for free off the Internet. It sickens me when I see that they have whole cases full of these CD's. This is why record companies jack up the prices, and this is why not many new bads will succeed.

I just thought was comical that anyone would care about a tiny article in the magazine that isn't even what the magazine is based around. I didn't want to see the article art, I wanted to see what they said in the article.

Like I said, it's hardly an article. It's just a little box underneath of the picture with a paragraph in it. Basically it says that it's 215 feet tall, it launches you back and forth 5 times, and that it hits 72 mph in 2.5 seconds. Then it gives the park's website. Trust me, it's nothing special, just a very basic summary of the ride stats.

Kind of off subject but that bothers me when they say 72 mph in 2.5 seconds. It sounds as if you start off from 0-72 in 2.5 seconds. They're playing around with it to make it seem a little more intense than it really is. Cause then stupid people who don't read the website will be like "Man you start out at 72 mph and you just keep going faster and faster". No doubt we will hear the same rumors about WT that we heard about MF. Many times at school I have heard "Dude did you hear they closed Millenium Force?! Yeah the wind was making it go 114 mph!!"

Let me guess, the rumor would be "Dude did you hear they closed Wicked Twister?! Yeah it kept speeding up and the train flew off the tower.
