Well Lucas said Adios so I take that to mean he is not logging in to read any of our responses to his "I quit" thread.(Certainly not the first one from a disgruntled TC'er) I've never had the pleasure of meeting him but have always respected his posts. I won't try to talk anyone back in off the ledge if they have decided to divorce themselves. However, I can't help but think that when a respected and knowledgeable contributing member of our forum leaves they also take with them their positive input and that will always lessen the value of our community. We can't all contribute volumes of useful information on vintage poly-pop but a lot of smaller pieces posted by thousands of "centralites" have been what has made this forum such a treasure. No two "tiki establishments" have ever been exactly alike and so it is with TC'ers and their likes and dislikes. What about Lucas' original question: "What is tiki?"
I think that has been bantered around on this forum enough times to get the answer. It is whatever the individual decides it is .....for them.
