The concept of "Urban Archeology" makes me wonder what my great grandchildren will mourn the loss of from the dim past of their great-grandfather? Tiki and Space Age give me a sense of nostalgia because I was in and around it so much when I was a young child and never paid attention to it, but once I was grown up and noticed that it was going away I started to miss it. My youngest grandkid is five, and the high point of his week is to come over to Papa's house (that's me!) for Tiki Lounge every Sunday afternoon. What is there in this world now that we oldsters consider mundane and artificial that will make him nostalgic in the Sundown days of his life?

I can't think of much of anything modern that I wouldn't give up to have Harbor Boulevard all lit up in neon Googie again.
