Jeeze! The purpose of my post was to inform people searching for info on "Hale Tiki", for example, that in order to see everything that been posted here on that bar, they will have to search using "Hal'e Tiki" and "Hale' Tiki" also. Try it; you'll see some entirely different posts depending on the spelling you use. Its the same deal with "Coco Joes" and its variations. I ran across this problem while searching for a phone number for Hale' Tiki and have also noticed it when trying to identify Coco Joes. We often criticize people for not searching before asking a question but since the search engine works by locating precise spellings, I am just trying to help by inserting a post that will come up under any common variant spelling and alert them to the others.

Ok, NOW I understand. It seemed like you were trying to get people to read YOUR post-but yet there wasn't really a post there to read. You were trying to school us. Thanks. :)
