Re: [DML] DeLorean's Soul

I have no idea how to spell that word! But the point I think James L 
is making is more on a non biological level. Instead of a person 
recieving a 'transplant', what about an electronic heart, an iron 
lung, a stainless steel kidney and a used spleen and so on... Well, 
its not that great a comparison versus a human/car, ooops, Icon!, but 
I can see both ways. 

To me, replacing about everything in a car, and its still the same 
car, provided the vin hasnt been changed, is all right. If that has, 
something illegal has gone on. A DeLorean is a DeLorean, whether is 
be a 5xx vin or something around 20xxx. Replace it with the proper 
parts and your D wont have rejection syndrome. 

On a final note, if I had a heart transplant, do I turn into the guy 
who gave me the heart?
