I have yet to see anyone "slam" anything in this thread.  You ask for comments, don't like what you get, and just call it a slam.  And with that, you just further hurt your chances of success...  But, I still wish you luck.

Moving these discussions back behind closed doors ("directly") is the standard operating procedure of the old DOA.  Why not change it, and move to OPEN PUBLIC MEETINGS and DISCUSSIONS?

One of the big mistakes I made with the DMA was to not fight harder for OPEN PUBLIC MEETINGS to be included as a requirement in the club bylaws.  The only reason to have private meetings and discussions is if you have something to hide.

Guys, 

I understand why many of you dislike the DOA and that some of the actions in the past a lot of people cant get around. I also understand that intellegent people can understand that a debate on the internet can be counter productive. So if anyone would like to ask me questions directly I will be happy to discuss any comment, questions, concerns or perceptions. Just email me your contact information and I will be happy to call you. I do want everyone to know that when posting the email we did last week, we knew there would be a lot of positive and negative feedback. I have received many private emails which I have responded too. So if you would really like to know what's going on, lets discuss it. If you want to just slam us, enjoy, I can't stop you. 

Just give a response to one of the comments that was made. One of the original board members DID pass away. We will pass along your condolences to his family. Also the Bernstiens are no longer on the board and not involved in any way. 

All the Best, 

Ken Baker
President 
DeLorean Owners Association

Wow! Ken if this is true I think I will end my involvement with the 
DOA. The DOA might just be DOA. How do you respond?
