I've been to Steamworks in Berkeley and Chicago, The Club in a bunch of cities, Hollywood Spa and Melrose Spa in LA, East Side and West Side Clubs in NYC, Basic Plumbing in Seattle, Swim Club in Denver, and clubs in Phoenix, Austin, San Antonio, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, and other cities that I can't recall at the moment.
Thai saunas are so much younger, spunkier, and sexier. Even Babylon. I think sauna culture pretty much died out in the US, at least for younger people, in the 1970's.
Or am I missing something?

Sorry--I should have made clear that I'm just talking about physical facilities of U.S. saunas. I agree that Babylon is great for meeting Thai--MUCH better than trying to meet guys in U.S. saunas (a total waste of time). But the Babylon ads make it seem like it's HUGE and has the greatest of facilities.
Flex is another sauna chain in the U.S. (Founder and owner's last name is Fleck.)
It seems like EVERYTHING has died out in the U.S.--mostly because of the morality nazis and money-hungry police who have nothing better to do than cruise undercover and bust people. I wonder if all the young people are now meeting online, or through pay services (phone chats and other things advertised in gay publications). Actually, I think nobody is meeting here in the U.S.--it's like nobody has any drive anymore, or they all sit home and waste a lot of money on pay pornography.
