My TC Ohana, even if you don't ever think you'll set foot inside the Hanalei (BUT especially if you are going to TO7), send a letter - or an email or SOMETHING - to the management telling them you are planning to visit and will be truly disappointed if they lessen their TiPSy scale. If they get a large enough response, they're much more likely to take notice. edited for spelling errors [ Edited by: Haole'akamai 2006-11-06 14:26 ]
