[DMCForum] Re: Who maintains delorean-owners.org?

["Dick Ryan" <deloreanbiker@xxxxxxxxx>]

I guess you had to be there - you know, the old saying when someone
else realizes you don't quite get it.  The DeLorean Owners Association
was formed after JZD had been "busted".  I suspect, though I don't
know for sure, that someone within the group had a sense of humor and
realized that DOA had another meaning and that might get some
publicity.  The first I heard of them (I was an owner since 1982 - one
month before John's "bust") was when there was an article in People
Magazine.  The magazine had the DOA reference in the headline -
referring to Dead On Arrival - so I think the idea worked.

I agree with Robert that even though many of us are really not happy
with the DOA, it is the oldest DeLorean organization extant and, as
such, would have some built-in history/respect/clout if run as being
truly representative of ALL DeLorean owners.
