PLEASE please stop this talk about vandalism. as a long time preservationist, the best way to salvage things is to have daily visitations (or more) to keep an eye if/when the dumpsters arrive. A pre-emptive strike is morally and ethically, not to mention legally wrong.

The Museum of Neon Art is trying to get the Tahiti sign for their collection. Otherwise it will be sold to a private dealer like Track 16 Gallery at Bergomont Station (who salvaged "Hawaii in the Valley" now on display Neonopolis in Vegas)

AND the Tonga Hut is SAFE for now. The owner, Mary, and I are going to get together and I am going to show her the BOT, etc. and hopefully I can take her around to the Lava Lounge and Tiki Ti as well...

Don't mess with Tonga - The Gods will be angry.
