[edit] Titan seen as a "cynical tourist trap"

I removed a claim that the Titan was "seen as a cynical tourist trap". It is not NPOV. And it was unattributed. It didn't say who regarded it as a cynical tourist trap.

I drove throuugh Sparwood once. I came across the Titan unexpectedly, in 1996. I stopped to examine it. There were half a dozen little plaques, describing the vehicle. But there were no souvenir stands. There was no cynical hook to make tourists stay and spend money. So I don't see how it could be regarded as a "tourist trap". -- Geo Swan 16:07, 2005 May 15 (UTC)
