I have not spoken to Fred about this in any detail, so this is all my own conclusions; If DMC did not owe Legend so much money, they may have recovered from the loss of the Fiat order. If DMC would have stayed in business and continued the relationship with Legend, they could have recovered from the loss of the Fiat order. The Fiat development was done, so it can be assumed that most of the debt Legend had was due to the research and development on the DeLorean project. Fred and John are friends. It is a good bet that Fred realized that JZD was not responsible for the failure of the company. Even so, they all took a risk and lost. Fred has incentive to stay on JZD's good side, so why badmouth him? They both strike me as the forgive and forget types anyway. The past is the past. Is there enough interest to ask Fred back for DCS 2006? If so, I can give him a call and ask him to hold the dates. --- ComposerZelgadis@xxxxxxx wrote: > I agree with James Espey.
