Oh, and just a minor clarification on something: Fred started the disk distributions long before BBSs were common occurences for Amigoids (for one thing, somebody had to make a decent term program first!). So Fred's work was somewhat more difficult as he had to trawl the embryonic "internet" and Amiga DevCons for the files that ended up on the first few disks. If you don't have a Fish CD collection in that massive library of yours, drop me an email and I'll see if I can scare one up for you.
