Felicidades, Tiki Chris!! How cool that tiki is becoming more and more appreciated by Academia.

thanks for the good cheer!

but believe me, you're better of not reading that damn thing - it's so dry & boring. but if you really want to know more about it, feel free to pm or email me.

honestly, i don't feel 100% comfortable talking about it yet b/c some of my research is going toward ...

something that i'm not quite ready to talk about yet.

for me, tying tiki into my studies was just a way to have fun & write about something that i love.

i don't think academia is any more appreciative of tiki than it was before i started my project. but i can tell you one thing: i appreciate academia a lot less after spending 2 years in grad school!

thanks again to the folks who participated in the e-interviews.

Smiles,
tiki chris
