HELP! Help save the Mai Tai!

I found THIS evil bit of horrible drink recipes and was shocked at the number of recipes calling themselves Mai Tais.... Shocked, I say! Look in the left-hand column where it says 'Similar Drinks.'

Now, in a slightly more rational tone..... I appreciate the fact that each of these recipes has been qualified with a name variation so that innocent bystanders wont get hurt. But, for the "Mai Tai" with no extra name variation they plan on serving in a Collins glass, layered with lots of pineapple and sweet and sour. Gasp!

Now, in an even more rational tone (Ha!), there is an option where you can cast your vote for the drink(s) in question. Please, join me in voting that recipe down to a one. I have posted a comment to that recipe indicating what and how a Mai-Tai should be made. Let us hope it is not too late.....

My favorite thing about that link is the guy who posted, "The REAL mai tai has 5 tropical juices and rum." and then rated the recipe a 10 out of 10. I guess he knows something we don't.
