How did you come up with that? I think that most Tikiphiles today were too young to have been hippies. I would guess the average Tikiphile age to be mid 40's to early 50's. Anyone who could have been a hippie has got to be 10 years older than that. Also most nostalgic posts here skew towards early Punk Rock rather than Woodstock or the Summer of Love. Just my observation. If I'm mistaken, Tiki Hippies please step up and be counted. :) [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2009-10-18 22:07 ]
