Needless to say, I got a sh*tload of e-mail.  I spoke today with Peter,
the originator of these disks; he claims that all were downloaded from
commercial BBS services (mostly GEnie), and that since they were on a
public BBS, he understands them to be in the public domain.  So, he said
it was OK to ship 'em around, as long as I explained their origins.

He also has a BASIC program to convert Mac format fonts to Amiga format.
This might be worthwhile to have just for the instructional value.  Note
that I DON'T have the program, just the fonts.  The program and the two
disks of fonts will be sent to Fred Fish (by Peter, not by me) eventually,
but he's under some heavy contract until September '87, so he'll get
to it when he can squeeze it in.

I'll make copies of the fonts for anyone interested.  Send two disks and
a couple of 22c postage stamps to:

	Bob Page
	Zoxso
	PO Box 283
	Lowell MA 01853 USA

Note this is not a Zoxso project, but a public (read "non-profit") service.
I will keep disks that come without return postage. Overseas requests
should have the appropriate return postage enclosed.  I will supply the
mailer, unless you send one.

Feel free to repost this offer on other networks and BBSs.
