I'd go for
DDI over plain old DDR every time.
(I've done this, and it's a hell of a lot of fun.)

Really? Looks insane. I love my Dance Dance and In The Groove, but having fire shot at me looks crazy, haha.

Back to the original topic... (shocking, I know).
I completely feel your friend's pain. Water rides have a bad habit of eating stuff. I have lost more pens and white out than I can count. (The hazards of talking with your hands.) Our height stick has ended up in the water on at least 3 separate occasions that I am aware of. If you're wondering, height sticks sink. My water bottle has ended up in the flume at least 3 times. Then there's the night the paperwork went in the water when a gust of wind caught it as I was shuffling it on the clipboard. We are not highly technological like Disney. So rotations, time sheets, numbers, everything is done by hand on the clipboard. I'm told it was very amusing to watch me dive for it. (on the platform, hand in the water). Taping it to the panel for 20 minutes will dry it out.
I love my ride, but it has a bad tendency to eat my stuff, and my crew gets way too much amusement out of it. Normally the wind is involved in some way.

I know back in ODV several years back, there was a crew pushing out one of the targe ice cream wagons. The CM's lost control of the cart and it crashed through the railings and into River's of America.
Main Streeter-ask Rob about this. He was the one who told me this. :)

I heard that one time when they drained the Rivers of America here they found a Pargo (which is essentially a golf cart) that somehow wound up in the river. I've also heard one of the pounds near the old Odyssey Restaurant in Epcot has a truck in it. Apparently it got stuck during construction of the park and it was decided to leave it there as it would've been to much expense and trouble to remove it.
I can believe the story about the Pargo but have a harder time believing the story about the truck.
