Jeremiah, I'm one of the moderators, and to the best of my knowledge nothing "went down" that needs to be kept private or secret. I like the DOA and have many happy memories of the Expos they have put on in the past. All of the board members and regular members I have met have been very nice to me. I consider many of the back issues of DeLorean World magazine to be very valuable. In recent years (2003?) it was renamed dw and changed to twice a year instead of quarterly. If you haven't seen the spiffy new website for dw you can check it out here: http://www.deloreanmagazine.com/ As to history, it is no secret that James Espey was a DOA board member at the same time he owned the DML. I'm a regular DOA member myself, and though I've never attended a DOA board meeting I know I would be welcomed there. I am not certain, but I think the DOA's official statement of purpose changed recently. Perhaps someone associated with the DOA board could confirm or deny that thought. - Mike Substelny DML moderator and card-carrying DOA member To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
