Re: [DML] Okay, here's a wildly improbable formula...

["Eric Itzel" <ericsdmcmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good math job!

I have 2 questions to add, if anyone can answer them-

1) Who got the investment money- DMC or DMCL?

2) How much did DMC charge DMCL per car (I presume that the DMC company had
to buy the cars from the manufacturer).

Thanks!

Eric
