Try reading it again.  It's a little obscure (we'll just blame Six
Flags' copywriters ;^> ):

	Open holidays and every weekend all year,

This is the default.  SFMM is open every holiday and every weekend of
the year.

	daily April 4-19 and May 22 through September 13.  

During these dates, SFMM is also open on weekdays.  Looks suspiciously
like Spring Break and Summer to me. ;^)

	Park opens at 10:00 am

Without any further info, I'd assume that this is any day, any time of
the year.  (Not like Disneyland, which has about a bazillion different
daily schedules.)

Note that no closing time is given.  I assume it varies quite a bit. 
Probably midnight or 1 a.m. in the summer, and much earlier in the off
season.

	Please telephone (805)255-4100 in advance for exact operating hours
	and general/special event information.

The cop-out. ;^)

Well, Silverwood operates daily until 9/7, then weekends until 10/4, so

When I was there a couple of weeks ago, it was $25 for a full day admission

I am leaving on Sunday to attend a music festival (Kingdom Bound 92) at 
Darien Lakes (New York) and I am wondering about the roller coasters at 
Darien Lake.  The only coasters I have been on are the one's at Canada's 
Wonderland.  I just finished reading the post on roller coaster record 
holders and I noticed that the Predator (Darien Lake) ranked 8th, while the 
Vortex (Wonderland) was way down there (I can't recall the exact 
position).  What about the other roler coasters at Darien Lake?  How many 
are there and what are they like?  Thanks in advance.

Well, this week I have to report that the GRAVITY DEFYING
CORKSCREW coaster at Silverwood in Athol, ID, is for sale,
and will not be at the park much longer.  Ride it if you
can. (PS, the is the ORIGINAL Arrow Corkscrew coaster!!)

Or, could it be that these rides cost too much for a small park to maintain?

Fortunately, ACE is not a contagious disease (although sometimes I wonder) or
anything else that you can "get". ACE is the acronym for the American
Coaster Enthusiasts, an organization which is self-descriptive. To find out
how to join ACE, send a letter requesting an application form to
ACE, P.O.Box 8226, Chicago, Illinois 60680. Then wait, because all help in
ACE is volunteer, and sometimes it takes a while for a response, especially
during summer riding months, and during the current membership renewal
season (starts at Sept. 1).

Happy Coasting,

CP has more coasters, but KI has the better huge woodie.  IMHO, of course.

The Mean Streak at CP is big and fast, but not much more exciting than
travelling 70 mph down the Ohio Turnpike.  No negative G's, no lateral G's,
no surprises.

The Beast at KI, on the other hand, is also big and fast, but also throws
you around (although not as much as it did when it was new), and is full
of surprises.

So ride the Mean Streak at CP, but by all means don't miss The Beast at KI.

I'll go one further...would someone post a description of the park.
What kind/how many rides do they have, what kind of stuff is there
to do?

The only thing I know about it is that I was shocked to find an amusement
park in the middle of nowhere (well...almost the middle of nowhere) the
first time I drove from Couer D'Alene (Or however the !@#$ you spell it)
to Sandpoint, ID.   Weird location, I must say.

No.  You have to drive all the way to Six Flags Great America (about 6 hours)
to find something decent.  ValleyFair! only has Excalibur which has a great
first drop (they claim 70 degrees...yeah, sure) and good speed but it's
very short.  The woodie is actually pretty good.  They have another loopie
that I've seen at every other park I've been to.  I used to have a season
pass (past 3 years), but refuse to go back until they put a new coaster in
(and there isn't one on the new-4-93 list)

The other local coaster, the new one at CAmp Snoopy is, well, BORING!!!!
It has no vertical drop > 45 degrees and has about a total of 100 feet
vertical drop.   No loops.  Gag.  They really could have done better than
that.  Paul Bunyan's Log Ride has a better drop!!

I haven't been to Adventureland in Des Moines, IA, yet (I'm going soon), but
that's another 5-6 hour drive from here.  Looks like they only have a woodie
and short steelie looper, anyways.

	Hello people,

	Since I have time to read the news, and I see there isn't a lot of traffic in
this newgroup I thought I could post about some of my favourite African
percussions CDs.

	First of all, I highly recomend the French label "Le chant du monde", they
have a great selection of percussions albums.

	But here are 2 of my favorites:

- Zaka percussions (on CD, it's a sort of Best Of of the albums they have out).
- Guem percussions (Great great percussions, amazing I should say, at least one
track is with Zaka (Zaka is a band, Guem too), no information at all on the CD
though )-:).

	You can find some "chant du monde" CDs here sometimes, so if you see any of
the above, go for it. Zaka's album has a lot of different styles from
'classical drums', to more modern stuff (using modern drums with bongos)
sometimes bordering good jazz-fusion. Guem is only traditional drums, but
played with so much virtuosity .....


	My problem is that I'm really out of touch with all that since I live here
now, anybody knows a good record store for 'wolrd beat' music in the Bay Aera ?
So now, I'm trying to discover Salsa (more accessible here).

and i would also like to underline augustus pablo's works, particularly
'east of the river nile', 'king tubby meets rockers uptown', and 'original
