Even if a topic was discussed back at Yahoo or just a few weeks ago everyone should feel free to express an opinion or ask a question. I hope no one holds back for fear they'll get a "Yeah, we talked about that last year" response, particularly new members. Using the "search" feature is not always the answer to a question, I've never encountered a search feature on a bulletin board that yields satisfying results. This isn't unique to bulletin boards, searching through old material in any format (magazines, cassettes, hieroglyphs) is a pain. This thread meshes well with the recent discussion started by the75stingray as to whether a new Tiki bar/restaurant would have a chance as a business venture. The Las Vegas casino scene is not the best gauge of general consumer activity but there's probably some wisdom to be gleaned from the Taboo Cove experiment. As for the music played in Taboo Cove... Suddenly reggae or Jimmy Buffet doesn't seem such a bad choice for a Tiki bar, does it? If I make it to Taboo Cove before it get's turned into the Cove Sports Bar & Grill I'll try to bring along a CD player and a big fat set of headphones. |
