Lord...Deja-view. Almost like reading an alumni list. I miss a lot of those people. I find all the early pages and topics are interesting to look at now, in context. I proudly wear the number 490. My whole experience with tiki prior to the B.O.T. and Tiki Central was scattered around various years, little pieces, and whatever I could drum up as a solo nut. I really never knew there was a tiki scene. Then I walked into a friend's book and toy store, Bizarro Wuxtry, in Athens one day, mid-construction on the Kon Tiki Paradise Room, and bought a little book by our big brother Sven. Changed forever. I went to school here at the university of TC. 5968 mambers now, man. That's hard to believe.
