[DMCForum] Re: DeLoreans for rent (for Marc)

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That is absolutely not the same thing and you know it.

Trading a material good with memories for a human life is entirely 
different than trading a material good with memories for a stack of 
green paper with no emotional memory or sentiment at all.

Of course I would trade the car for my wife, or anyone else's life 
Even yours. Don't twist my words around as you often accuse me of 
doing.

I'll say it one more time in case I wasn't clear above:

Trading a physical item (whatever sentimental value it has) for a 
human life is no comparison to being willing to trade anything you 
have for the required number of digits added to your bank statement 
that you have no memory or experiences built into.

I would not trade my automobile for something as paltry as a stack 
of cash unless it would serve a real, long term benefit such as 
putting my kids through college or paying a medical bill but as long 
as it's a transient benefit such as what 12-15k would provide, I'm 
keeping it.
