But I'll readily admit that, to me, tiki is probably much more fun and immersive than googie, space age, and whatever "safari" style and architecture is. It seems that tiki was comparatively much more developed and pervasive in mid-century culture. You're also right that SpaceAgeCity (Chris) has chosen a challenging assignment. This is all the more reason to proceed carefully and methodically. And if he's committed to doing the work, I'm committed to being supportive and patient. After all, as the once-popular saying of the time goes, Rapa Nui wasn't built in a day... :) SpaceAgeCity (Chris,) rock on!
