Really Greg/Gary/(put your next alias in here) What happened to you? Why are you such a bitter little person? Why hang around the DeLorean community if you hold us the owners, the car, and the man behind the car in such disdain? Don't you have anything positive to contribute? I truly feel sorry for you that one of your hobbies is hanging around here where as far as I can see, you are not wanted. Best wishes, John Dore, Ireland. PS we in Ireland are doing plenty to garner as much positive press for the DeLorean car and John DeLorean as possible, thanks very much. --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "endotex23" <endotex23@xxxx> wrote: > > > Is it time to break out the poisoned Kool-Aid yet? > > First off, any rise in value will be the result of simple speculation > and will soon drop off.
