[DMCForum] Re: Farrars ascii Delorean

Hi Farrar.

I'm usually lurking around, though I don't write much.

Thanks for your kind words.  I hope you'll go to the DCS Chicago Show 
even if you haven't got your Delorean yet.  I say 'yet' because I'm 
sure it's only a matter of time and money for you, not desire or 
passion, which you clearly have for the car.

I like your ascii Delorean.  Personally, I feel it should have a 
front license plate, maybe reading "FARRAR", like your real car might 
have, so everyone knows who made it.

And for the few people whining about the Pigeon Forge show, either 
put up, that is, volunteer your time and money to make things happen, 
or be quiet about it.  A lot of people put in a lot of work for 
little gain, and a few people put in an insane amount of work, in 
order to provide that show.  To nitpick it after the fact is kind of 
an insult.

Rick.
