Thank you Yann for giving us this. Great!
The first time I met Jack Wattley was in Januar 1988 when I visited him in Fort Lauderdale and bougt ten discusfish from him.
He was so nice and obliging.
He said to me and my wife: "I saw at once that you are vikings from the north". We had T-shirts and he had some kind of cardigan.

I will say to everybody that they shoould try to find his very interesting book "Discus for the perfectionist".
