Gennaro: Let's get something straight, John. This is not a weekend excursion. This is a serious investigation of the stability of the island. Your investors whom I represent are deeply concerned. Forty-eight hours from now if they're not convinced, I'm not convinced. I'll shut you down, John.
John Hammond: In forty-eight hours I'll be accepting your apologies.
Dr. Alan Grant: How did you do this?
John Hammond: I'll show you.
Dr. Alan Grant: You married?
Dr. Ian Malcolm: Occasionally.
Ellie Sattler: What's so wrong with kids?
Alan Grant: Oh Ellie, look, they're noisy, they're messy, they're expensive. They smell. Some of them smell, babies smell.
Chosen answer: Yes. The first opening day of Disneyland in California was catastrophic. The pavement was fresh and the sun was so hot high-heeled shoes actually sunk into the walkways. Counterfeit tickets were made, resulting in more people than the park had room for. They ran out of food and drinks. Bathrooms clogged and shut down. Many of the rides broke down on opening day. The Storybook Land Canal Boats had to be pulled by cast members in rubber boots. At the time, there were no guide rails for Autopia; some of the cars crashed into each other, making them inoperable. A gas leak in Fantasyland lead to the land being temporarily closed for part of the day.
