This is an entry on a roadside attraction in my home state of Arizona. I would certainly welcome any suggestions on grammatical, spelling, and syntax issues. In addition I want everyone's opinion on whether or not this entry, as it is, should be put through the Peer Review system for recomendation into the Edited Guide. Thanks in advance to anyone who posts here.

I didn't concentrate on spelling etc, but there's one point to make: the Editors (and us researchers as well :-) ) seem to really want a spoiler! -- For comparison, please take a look at 'The Mystery Hole' at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A548183. The Editor's voice can be read at the end of the (ex-) Peer Review thread http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F66938?thread=112554 on the bottom of that entry. Bossel

Thank you for your comment. I suppose the fact that I'm bitter about having spent a buck on this shouldn't mean I force other people to waste a dollar. Even worse, my entry could be seen as an advertisement! Ack!

That's again very similar to the 'Mystery Hole' entry 
"Ad or no ad" depends on how you describe The Thing.

Well, I know this: my entry doesn't make the Thing sound fun and educational.
