If you choose to look for the worst, you're sure to find it. This discussion medium has its strengths, and it also has its disadvantages -- chief among them is that there is always the risk that someone will give an unintended sinister read to your statements (a concern that must be even more stark for those, like Sven, for whom English is not their primary language). The whole shebang works better for everyone involved if you're willing to give the benefit of the doubt; the same benefit you'd likely want to receive if someone was misconstruing you. Perhaps a better word could have been chosen, but it was certainly not an inapt word.

Regardless, this is looking a gift horse in the mouth -- as Ookoo so well pointed out, if tiki is your bag, you'll find a lot to love in the Book of Tiki. It, along with Tiki Central, changed my life, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. It may be only one piece of the Poly Pop puzzle, but it's a darned big one.
