From: Jus4sho@xxxx To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Rejected. Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 09:42:41 EDT Rejected. My recent posting, inquiring as to the cause of these apparent engine fires was rejected, while I see several "I agree" type comments posted. This bothers me. As a car enthusiast, a DeLorean owner, and an Engineer, I asked if there was a common cause or "defect" which caused the fires not to start a flood of bad publicity, rather in hopes of possibly helping all DeLorean owners by possibly designing a solution to the "defect". Isn't that what we're here for? Having read several of the follow up postings to this subject, which were posted, I have concluded that there is no common cause or "defect" which could be corrected. If there's no problem, then no solution is required. That's all I needed to hear. Finally, would "Fanzilla" or "Lockzilla" have ever been created if every posting regarding problems with the Delorean's fans and locks were rejected because "we don't want to give the car a bad name"? Steve VIN 2650 Steve, The bulk of the messages I've rejected have had less to do with the subject matter than the fact that the senders have included quite lengthy reprints of the posting or postings they're responding to. I hate doing that but if everyone could trim their quoted posts to a few key sentences the archives will work much better as a resource for answers and we won't have as many complaints about overloaded mailboxes.
