it wasn't for the internet, I don't think I would have encountered any fellow tiki enthusiasts nor would I have found out there was such a thing as a tiki revival.

Same with me. I was facsinated with "tiki" long before I found out there was such a thing as Tiki. I was listening to Arthur Lyman when I was a little kid, and anything fake-polynesian (especially places like the Tahitian Terrace in Disneyland) was something I liked.

I must say, Sven's book of Tiki really opened my eyes, and I first heard about the book right here. My Sister bought me a copy that she got at some bookstore maybe around 2003.
