Marty,

A couple of thoughts on your posting below:

I am not trying to be right or wrong about the current DOA.  My  
statement was that nothing can be served by looking back at the  
problems of the past.  The DeLorean community is too small to have  
fighting between various owners.  How can we expect the DeLorean car  
and dream to last into the future without a positive dialog between  
ALL owners.

You specifically mention the books.  When I was a member, I remember  
that on a yearly basis a balance sheet was published of the club's  
condition.  I have not taken a look at back issues of DeLorean World  
to see if it was in the magazine or a newsletter.

You make it sound like the entire DOA was responsible for the  
abrasive relationship of the past.  However, this situation was  
caused by a select few people with large voices.

The financial commitment to the DOA for a three year membership and  
all back issues of DeLorean World is relatively small.  Three years  
as a member of the New DOA is sufficient time to find out what kind  
of club the DOA will become.
