I too am glad that these cars have been saved, and I wish 6t5 the best of luck in selling them—I truly do. But I’m not sure it’s reasonable to take offense with people who have posted on the two threads. The door for different ideas was opened by 6t5, and speculation is only natural in a public forum, especially in unusual circumstances where the subject matter is meaningful to the participants and where information isn’t complete/communicated quickly. It’s quite true that 6t5 was under no obligation to provide any information to anyone. At the same time, and within the bounds of forum rules, members had no obligation to withhold their thoughts/ideas/suggestions/speculations. Consider the intimation that people who posted ideas other than auctioning the cars simply wanted to profit from the situation. This is the same sort of speculation, isn’t it? I for one would have considered a car from this lot for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with turning a profit, and I suspect there are others who feel the same way.
