I don't believe that, but I do believe nationality has a lot to do with it. And here's how: Most Americans don't have any appreciation for all the cool stuff that the average Tiki Centralite digs. We'd probably all be happy as heck if Las Vegas (or any American city) was perfectly frozen in time somewhere around 1969. But most of America has zero interest in automats, neon signs, drive in movies, windowless bars, or mid-century commercial architecture.
