The "N" in nerd should be capitalized. And a period should follow it. Even then, it would be a sentence fragment. A very small fragment.

Now who's the grammer expert?

What makes TTD so amazing to me is the theming and the atmosphere. The sound effects just make the ride seem so extreme, and the fact that your right next to the ride when it's going 120 MPH is awesome. Think what's the next fastest you have seen a coaster go right next to you. Never mind the sound effects ECT. It really builds the anticipation.

So if this ride has a silent launch with a lame theme and the car is so far away from you when your next to the ride. It wouldn't be nearly as exciting.

If I where you go to Great Adventure either the first day it's open or late in the summer.

Thou art an uber-nerd Rob. ;)

And I definitely agree with Gigaforce. We don't know for sure where the line is going to go, or how extensive the theme will be, but past trends would lead us to believe that if the parking lot hasn't been drilled yet, it's not going to be. So that means the line won't be near the launch point, and crowds won't be walking near the launch track (at least at this point in time - perhaps the future expansion plans include a full midway around this coaster?) which severely diminishes the "wow" factor of this ride. Knott's was slow when I was there, so it's hard to judge, but TTD and Storm Runner gather huge crowds just to watch the launch.

Both are correct...


From http://webster.commnet.edu/grammar/determiners/determiners.htm#articles :

Merriam-Webster's Dictionary says that we can use an before an h- word that begins with an unstressed syllable. Thus, we might say an hisTORical moment, but we would say a HIStory book. Many writers would call that an affectation and prefer that we say a historical, but apparently, this choice is a matter of personal taste.
