People don't give 2 $h!#$ because a vast majority bartenders aren't willing to educate their drinking public. If you give someone who's never had a good drink something of quality and substance, they might have a fighting chance to require better bartending. Additionally, This whole topic was started by Mr. Garner of Barwizards spamming us. He obviously didn't take any time to see what TC was really about Celebrating classic and modern Polynesian Pop (hence the SPAM). He did spend enough time reading what we all thought and told Mr. Dyer, who also didn't spend anytime to see what TC was really about Celebrating classic and modern Polynesian Pop but instead, just starts railing. You want to talk disrespect? It's like someone going to a flairtending site and telling them to "Chill out with all the flipping! You people are ridiculous! Get a life!" I'm not positive, but I'm reasonable sure no TC Ohana would do that. ... and it's not like we'll hear from either of them again, anyway. ...ahem...getting down off my soapbox now
