I think that this scam is being perpetrated by the conspirators that killed
JFK.  If it were such a scam, I would think that over the *several years* it 
has been since I sent my info to Port Elizabeth [think that's right] that I 
don't recall getting any calls from anyone trying to sell me stuff for my 
QTC.  Maybe they sold the list to Publisher's Clearinghouse ... I wonder 
where they got my name from!  I believe that car registry has been done 
before ... I believe that there are registries for some types of American 
Muscle Cars as well as some fine European vehicles ... even for some like 
the Shelba Cobra with a disputed heritage.  

All in all, a registry can be a good thing, because it can help to determine 
the history of a limited production car, but IMO this registry has been a 
black hole to date.

Not even gonna claim a value of 0.02
