They convince themselves that their actions are for the betterment of all mankind when actually their actions are for the betterment of themselves. We who are happy with the way things are become "sentimentalists." Hell, the sentimentalists are the regulars that kept the place afloat all these years. I challenge Trader Vic's to create a venue that truly compares to Victor's original design....they can't do it. Corporations too big, too many cooks in the kitchen...They just want to expend their energy trying to convince you that they can. Hype Hype Hype. Like I mentioned before, if this fight to keep the landmark fails (lets give it a good one), use the failure to take stock in what is left, and start today working with the California Preservation Officer to devise a plan to save them. You'll be glad that you did. (I hate one-sided news articles...) Forum Saturday still on, right? Swamp [ Edited by: Swamp Tiki 2007-01-25 19:58 ]
