I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

Well im glad to see they still announced it, the one thing they confirmed in the article that most of us were unsure about is the landscaping. No more parking lot woohoo!

So I guess the announcement wasn't cancelled. Hey look, on RCDB for SFOG's SUF the length is 2760 feet long and the one on the Daily Herald for SFGAm says 2798. I wonder...

Maybe its gonna be a bit before they put it on the site, cause they'll probably have more things to announce too, like new flat rides maybe.

[Sarcasm] OMG! It's a Superman - Ultimate Flight clone??? You've got to be kidding me! I was totally NOT expecting this!!! [/Sarcasm]lol j/k... It's cool that they announced it at least! And coasterguy... How can you say flats don't matter!?! Flats can be just as cool as roller coasters! (Well crappy roller coasters maybe, but you get the point.):D

Hey, does anyone else realize that in the Daily Herald, it says the seats tilt after leaving the station... I'm assuming it's untrue, and that they tilt while still in the station as the other SUF's do... I was just wondering if anyone else noticed...

It's supposed to tilt right before they leave the station when its ready to take off. I find it pretty cool...

Im guessing thats wrong since in the yahoo article here:http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/030205/cgw007_1.htmlIt says that they will recline in the station in that article.

"The ride is reported to be on schedule for operation when the park opens for the 2003 season on May 5."I am confused... typo, I assume? The park doesn't open May 5.

Must be some miscommunication because if they don't know the date the park opens, I'm sure they could easily mess other details up also.
