But for using all of Jeff's info and recipes they could have at least mentioned his I-phone app, that would have been up their alley one would presume. It turns out that only the recipes made it into print in the actual magazine, the Don The Beachcomber article is on the website only. With the advent of the internet it is getting less and less common to give credit to the source of the information that one uses, it is taken as common use knowledge --to be spread as one's own. I also gave the writer the names of Marie at Don's and Kelly at the Tonga Hut as examples for current Tiki mixologists who use their own fresh ingredients, but neither were mentioned. Instead they used a guy from a Whiskey bar. Like I said, it is out of one's hands what the media does with the info one provides.
