  1. Adam, regarding your first post, have a look at previous posts in other threads by tailsnosthings. My thoughts on something DW are doing that would make Superman look average...it's not a hypercoaster, unless DW are now trying to fight MW/SW ride-for-ride, ie gigacoaster. But the costs alone are too much IMO.   Remember the Coomera town center and promenade to Dreamworld ("Massive DW expansion" thread)... this is going to take a lot of funds, maybe some from future rides. So my thoughts are that it will be bang-for-your-bucks. Nowhere near as dear as Superman, but "better"...?? Hmm. Maybe the budget could spare a few hundred thousand dollars for upkeep...ie New paint over grafitti... but yeah, they're different departments of the company, aren't they...
    Dreamworld is not funding the Coomera Town Centre project.
  2. The only reason I have for not stepping on or in a pyramid is respect.  Simple. I have read you last post several times now Adam and am yet to understand what you are going on about.  Firstly you seem to have missed my point that the modern Egyptians do not, on a whole, base their beliefs on ancient traditions, hell it's a Muslim country.  But there is a group that still do and just like Australia they are a minority.  However just because they are a minority doesn't mean they shouldn't be respected. The Alien's didn't build the pyramids the American's did. "The Bus is now leaving for Alien Dam, Victoria"
    Okay firstly, who is this "minority group" which believes in people not touching the pyramids? Secondly, many other cultures (e.g American Indians, NZ Maoris) openly welcome visitors to come and explore their "sacred" sites. If anything it helps people to learn and understand more about their culture. Telling people they can't climb a rock in the middle of a desert isn't really doing much for Aboriginals.
  3. And tens of millions of people every year visit the Vatican. Obviously they don't climb on top because it dangerous and the building wouldn't support the load. Plus it's man-made, so people have the right to say it's "theirs". Aboriginals can claim a rock (a piece of nature) to be sacred to them, but why should anyone else have to see it that way too.
