I'm glad I was able to deliver the response you were seeking Robert. I appreciate your nomination, but I served as President of the Association for about six months last year. In that time, I managed to become overwhelmed with the number of e-mails delivered to that office, offended several other Board members, two of whom eventually quit, and although I did get Stephen Clark to join us, I feel I didn't accomplish anywhere near what I wanted to. Since Ron Ferguson took over and I accepted the Vice-Presidency, I have been able to concentrate on the areas where I think we need the most help. Namely the magazine and the website. We do need our leaders, but more than that, we need doers. I like doing things. I don't always get them right, but I am willing to make an effort and learn from my mistakes as I go. I can only hope my approach is a sound one, and that I can learn quick enough! Thanks again for your support, Josh Josh Haldeman - Vice-President DeLorean Owners Association From: Robert Subject: Re: [DML] DeLorean Owners Association?? FINALLY!!!! I'm very critical of the DOA, and always have been. But I've never wanted to destroy the DOA, just dismantle the negative board of directors and replace them with better people who actually have the ability to adjust to the needs of a modern, honest DeLorean owner. I've tried instigating this several times over the years by way of my goading questions. Not everyone understood my questions, but a few other DML'ers here saw what I was doing and have told me so offline they saw it and realized what was going on... My goal of criticizing wasn't simply to vent my anger or frustrations at you or anyone else. I got over my problems with the DOA almost a decade ago, and certainly don't have time to dwell on things ------------------------------------ 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/dmcnewsYahoo!
