TIP: If you are an American visiting Canada, ALWAYS use your credit card/check card instead of cash to get the "American" rates at the end of the billing cycle. ;)
Generally speaking, you DO get a good exchange rate through the credit cards, but check the details -- most credit cards charge an additional 2-3% for the conversion, on top of the exchange rate and on top of any accrued interest. Why? Just because they can.
(Usually it still works out pretty well, and for the convenience factor when in, say, Germany, I just go for credit anyway, but that added transaction fee CAN add up.)

You are absolutely correct, ACE isn't truly a trade organization and there is a difference. I was thinking of it more along the lines of a trade group which is an error on my part. I will remain a member solely for my love of coasters and the occasional magazine.
I truly hope that they keep the Beast walk-back, as it really is a park tradition. Time obviously will tell us all the answer.
And although I do enjoy my life here in Nebraska, I do tend to plan trips around what park provides the most 'bang' for the buck.
It's not like I can get off work friday, drive to ride KK or X, and get back to work bright and early on Monday. Well, I suppose I could, but how many laws would I have to break along the way... :)
