Thanks Otto and Dustycajun for your posts, this is what I come to TC for.

Can remember meeting Otto for the first time at the last night Kahiki party.
I asked him about the Witco I had just found and he told me all about witco
even have that on Video.

Back in 2000 we did not know of tiki, Witco it was just the Kahiki to us, tiki was a word
we did not use.

Tiki News, the book Tiki Quest, and Sven's book that we saw for the first time at that party were like WHAT! There's more out there?
Bought every Tiki News the Kahiki gift shop had.
Man you never hear of Tiki quest on TC, I think that one was before book of Tiki.
Have post it notes on my Tiki quest and the prices the mugs went for on eBay.

Kahiki was dyeing before the news it was going to be torn down, sure there was still
folks that went there for birthdays ect but the place got VERY busy after people found out it was going away for good.

Wonder if there was not a few people throwing gas on the few folks love of tiki
if tiki would be as big as it got after the Kahiki went down.
Or if the word tiki would be thrown around as it is now.

Do know that I would have never started making as many lights and going to events, how would you even know about events without TC and or Tiki news.

So thanks again for your efforts.
