Hello Jim, Let's try this one more time. This time, try to focus on my original message. You didn't do your research! My comments were directed toward Concours d'Elegance as it relates to DeLorean automobiles. This is the DeLorean Mailing List. (DML for short). We're really not interested in hearing about your Ford Thunderbird, or someone with a PT Cruiser with flames or without flames or another individual with a Ferrari. If you lost a Concours d'Elegance because your vehicle was overrestored. That's your fault. A good restoration takes into consideration what was authentic to a car in its day. Overrestoration is difficult to define directly, but it generally involves an attempt to make something into something more than it was initially, an attempt to better it. I'm really only interested in how YOUR DeLorean automobile would place in competition. Now go do your research as requested and don't waste time with me. "Put your brain into gear" Thank you for calling a major error to my attention. In the future, please refer to me as: Prince Fatboy ----- Original Message ----- From: txgrnbrt <txgrnbrt@xxxx> To: <dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 8:58 AM Subject: [DML] Re: Let's try again; Facts and "The airline terminal" - Concoursd'Elegance > [MODERATOR NOTE: This message, though overly long, calls FatBoy's credentials into question, a relevant topic for this discussion. - moderator Mike Substelny] > > Fatboy: > > Email is a wonderful thing. > > A garbage man can pretend to be a prince, and you can pretend to be > an expert, without revealing your true identity. > > You spent a lot of time researching the list to demean everyone you > could, and hit us with a litney of opinions, all flawed. > > Sir, this isn't about spelling or grammatical correctness, and this > isn't about you.
