Is a slowing-down of posts, etc. on TC indicative of an end of tiki fandom? I don't think so at all. Not only for the reasons people said that winter is typically a stay indoors, not so tropical time of year where we have to focus on other things, but let's think of how quickly Tiki Central has grown. There are so many educated people in here posting all the time and the history to this point of tiki is only so long. We were going to run out of (or slow down in) history eventually, and maybe this is the beginning. There's just not much new left for us to learn?

I can't speak for events and people going out to the bars because, where I am, the nearest tiki bar is 50 miles away and in another town. It's hard to visit. But, if the posting of history and asking of questions on Tiki Central has slowed, don't think of it as reduced interest. Think of it as a rousing success. We've (you've) put so much info into this one place that everyone knows where to go to get all they need.

I don't post much because I have nothing new or interesting to say. Someone else has said it better elsewhere. So, is this evidence of a reduced interest in tiki. Oh hell no. I just read and learn from those who came before me. And I assume THAT is more of a reason than any scary downfall in interest.
