Hey RJ!
Don't downplay your DJ efforts.
Remember that night at the Conga with the theremin player doing that horrible rendition of "tequila?"
What a blast. "Otto's Forbidden Island..."

Anyway, I'm not indignant and I don't think anyone is really.

Here's the deal... for me anyway:

This whole freaking website is a compendium of how people are "promoting tiki."
An unabridged encyclopedia for those who are willing to do the search.
Page upon page of carvings and sales and parties and bars and wares and music and ideas.

It's kind of ... no, it's a very superflous question and it just bugged me a little, personally, that caerthe, who seems like a perfectly reasonable and likeable person, would try to boil down this huge effort on all of our parts that was put together through hours of hours of research and hard work and liver trauma.

So although I'm not kvetching or verkelmpting over the thread, I do want to make fun of it a little.

The chasm between this threadlet and the body of work represented here at TC is similar to the difference between a Martiki created Captain's Grog and a lukewarm Bacardi and Diet Coke.

I think... I'm just guessing here... that this is the same thing that's bugging Kuku and a few others.

You want to know how we're promoting tiki?
