Some have been known to post from time to time. Others may lurk without telling us ... and a few, including the writers and executive producers, have told us on the QT that they do visit and read what fans are saying! There are specific rules for respecting your fellow users, especially when it comes to the show's cast and crew. Be sure to read the forum's complete list of posting rules and regs.

No. If you have a fracture, we fit you with a splint and then help you find an orthopedist who can apply the cast. We can’t put on splints because our malpractice insurance doesn’t cover us for that.

It’s the sport of competitive rowing. Rowing is a top aerobic activity that develops excellent, overall physical conditioning. Boys and girls in long, narrow boats called “shells” race against each other and the clock. They race against other rowers of similar age and experience levels, and the boat with the fastest time over a prescribed course (usually 1500 meters) is the winner. The concept is simple, and it’s easy to learn the basics.

When the casts come off, the children will initially have a "funny" gait (there may be external rotation and a flat foot appearance). It will take 6-12 weeks for the gait to improve. The parents and doctor will decide together when the child may return to sports/activities.

The doctor will use a small electrical saw to remove the cast. Although it may look and sound scary to your child, the process is actually quick and painless. The saw's blade isn't sharp - it has a dull, round blade that vibrates up and down. The vibration is strong enough to break apart the fiberglass or plaster, but shouldn't hurt your child's skin and may even tickle.

Casts are usually soaked off at the beginning of the appointment in a tub of warm water and vinegar, then cut away with a small blade or scissors when they are soft. Some physicians prefer to use a cast saw.

Yes, we have waterproof casts. The difference between a waterproof and non-waterproof cast is the Gore-Tex lining. All fiberglass is waterproof, but the lining is typically made out of soft cotton-like material. This is not waterproof. The Gore-Tex lining allows the patient to bathe and swim as they usually would. Not all fractures are suited for Gore-Tex. Long-arm and long-leg casts usually don't do well with Gore-Tex because it is hard for the water to drain out of the cast.

Yes, although we do not have display gardens, we do have thousands of visitors come and browse our mail-order setup. We're located half-way between Cleveland, Ohio and Erie, Pennsylvania. It's a great way to see 900+ varieties all alphabetized on tables. We also have herbs, mums, shrubs, bedding annuals, hanging baskets, and in the fall, bulbs. Find out where we're located! Or you can take our new virtual tour.

The senior pastor must guide the CORE Discipleship vision. Other leaders can help, but the vision and overall leadership belong to the lead pastor. From experience we have learned that no matter who introduces the CORE Discipleship ministry into a church, that ministry will only go as far as the Senior Pastor’s vision for it - sheep follow the shepherd. I encourage church leaders to actually lead a CORE group, or at least be in a CORE Group.

Thanks to our recent affiliation with Dinkydigits, we can now have your plaster casts remade in a selection of other materials such as real bronze, hallmarked silver or gold, cold cast metal/resins, and glass crystal. Other materials may be available soon, so please ask if what you want isn't listed.

RHPS consists of basically three parts: the filmed image, the audience participation, and the live action. The cast is one of the major reasons to see the show, and most casts go to great pains and expense to put on a good performance. As Richard O'Brien said, "Three out of three ain't bad."

But several people have tried to list them all. David Shetterly posted a list in June 1999, which was the basis for the list below (since updated). If you have additions, please let us know.

Guests with casts cannot ride Cat Woman's Whip, Cyclone, Stampede Bumper Cars, Taz's Daredevil Drop. Casts must be above the elbows and knees so that guest are able to bend their limbs in order to ride all other park rides. Casts cannot restrict ride restraints in any way.
