Who hasn't read The Book of Tiki? (Not a poll) - General Tiki

I, too, was into tiki before BOT, but did not realize that anything tiki was readily available, so I just enjoyed it on those rare occasions when I could find a tiki bar. One happy day I was browsing through an outdoor used and out of print book booth in Central Park and happened upon the BOT. I immediately bought it and it inspired me to start doing web searches for tiki, which lead me here. It wasn't long before I was stocking my apartment full of tiki items. I'm sure this experience is not unique to me. Bottom line is that the BOT did not give birth to my interest in tiki, but it made it grow into a significant part of my life. Thanks Sven!
