Very interesting thread indeed and thoughtful subject in my humble opinion.

I came to TC via some Googling of exotica...I was impressed and happy to find this wonderful community of people that supported a genre that I didn't even know existed. Many of us are just on the edge of Tiki in that we are appreciative of all it has to offer, but we are mostly participants in the adventure and not in the core by providing intel or art. I hope people, like me, that support the artists, events, and genre provide the eager audience that all the experts play to.

In the past, I have had negative comments made to me about making too many posts, spelling errors and my support of newbies who had a "not really a Tiki bar"...but I did not let it stop me from meeting so many wonderful friends and learning more about Tiki by remaining on the board.

Honestly, the only things I can add to TC are my APPRECIATION & ADMIRATION of all the wonderful posts that help to enrich my life and those of others. I have done what I can to build a Tiki Lounge in my home and I enjoy entertaining friends from time to time and post a few pictures occasionally. Th-th-th-that's all folks!
