>>I saw the Mir at the Wisconsin Dells on CNBC last night. <<
That would be the Tommy Bartlett Robot World, Exploratorium and Water Ski show - now with Mir attraction. The Mir is the real thing. The Dells is a wacky place. Several huge water parks, miniature golf courses, a street lined with shops selling T-shirts and 'your photo in 19th Century clothes' kinda stuff. Kinda like if Ma and Pa built a 6 Flags on a limited budget. Then there are the Dells themselves which have a natural beauty - you can tour them in World War II amphibious vehicles called 'Ducks'. Absolutely packed with kids and people from Chicago in the Summer. They actually have to bring over people from foreign countries to staff the place because they can't find enough local employees.'Bout an hour away to the North. Its wacky.
This will give you an idea__
