Most cars list both mph and kmh.  So it's easy to convert while driving

My car lists both with kmh in small print more towards the center while every rental I've had in Canada lists kmh in larger print with mph more towards the center in tiny print.

True most cars do have that... and my car has km's in larger print. However you'll notice at the fort erie, buffalo border coming into canada there is a conversion chart, and going into buffalo there is not. The reason is based on the average knowledge of each others country, and the average IQ.

Just joking about the iq part... but surveys showed an ambassing amount of americans either didn't know how to convert, or even what they are.

An ambassing amount of americans you say? How ambassing!

[WadeJ]

This is just getting too fun.  Especially since I used to be in Canada a lot for work.  Brings back fun memories.

Anyway, as much fun as this is, let's try to keep it back on topic for HWN . 

[AV Matt]

Party pooper.

How many days now, Canada? My IQ is ambassing low so I can't count so good.

[dkny6363]

Wow 1 spelling mistake leads to a death sentance. I believe we are looking at 9 weeks, aka 63 days. Oh and Matt the conversion rate on that 63 days... it's 63 US days as well.

[Robert T Ackerman]

But you don't have daylights savings, do you?

[AV Matt]

LOL! That's a hard CORE post! 

[dkny6363]

Yes we do have daylight savings.

[dkny6363]

50!

[AV Matt]

50 days. It seems so long...

9...












...days 'til Knoebels opens!!!!!

[dkny6363]

Seems like just the other day it was 100 days.

[dkny6363]

Old Voyage trains are going on the predator next year.

[AV Matt]

Yep, it be true. Should help the ride stay alive as the old trains are not only 20 years old, but more importantly the ill-faited trailered model by PTC. They didn't last long the other rides they were installed on. They needed to be replaced at least 10 years ago on Predator! Hope they get it back to top form. It's a great woodie when it's not trying to kill you.

[dkny6363]

I once rode it 17 time in row. Unlikely that will ever happen again. I hope Darien Lake picks it up a bit cuz it's my 2nd closest big park. If you want to call it big.

PS. 47 days!

[AV Matt]

41 days!

[dkny6363]

40 til KI, 39 til we leave, 38 til last day of work, 37 till... ummm nevermind!

[Robert T Ackerman]

Booked my flights today. Flying into St Louis on Friday morning, flying home Sunday night.

[dkny6363]

33!

Does anyone think I'll get KI tickets for less than 31.99?

Are you guys going to beach bend? Do they have pay per ride, or do you have to buy a day pass. $30 seems like a lot just for the rumbler.

[Bubba Z]

Scat two !!

[PcMan]

ACE discount or try ebay Craigslist  but $31not to bad

[Robert T Ackerman]

I'd pay the $30 to get into Beech Bend over any money to get Ito KI. That's a fun little park and Rumbler is one of those rides you can ride all day and it just gets better everytime.
