Mahalo nui loa for the Mac checking, and thanks for all the kind words! It's such a relief to have it done -- once I started work on the new look & feel, the old one looked like an eyesore, and it had to go. Much, much better now -- and a lot easier to use, I think.

The Gnomon, you're right -- the great old tiki places are still going out of business. I have renewed hopes for the future, though -- the new places that have opened up in the past few years are of much, much higher quality than those that were opening five years ago. Hopefully the trend towards quality tiki will make its way to your area soon. In the meantime, get to know your local tikiphiles! The best tiki bars are always the home bars.

Here's the thread about the close of Pacific, the locals just got together at Pacific's sister restaurant to check out the cocktails & drown their sorrows:
