------------------------------------------------------------------
   I was flipping through some brit. car magazines and saw a blurb about
Colin Chapman.  Sounds like Chapman and the current head of Lotus were
involved in trying to defraud John Delorean of 17.5 million dollars.
Anyone heard some other news ?

They way I read it was that Chapman along with the current head of Lotus and 
John Delorean were involved in trying to defraud the British government of a 
bunch of money.  The head of Lotus was found guilty, faces a sentence and a 
fine, and there is a warrant out for DeLorean if he ever sets foot in England.

     >>The way I heard it is that Colin and Jimmy Hoffa had
     claimed responsibility for crop circles and were
     demanding royalties from anyone that capitalized on it.
