We need an obituary folder to house threads pertaining to deaths of obscure people.

Dick Button is not obscure to my generation. He was a great athlete in his time.

Nor mine, but he wasn't a swimmer. He was a figure skater who revolutionized the sport landing the first skater to land a double axel and inventing the flying camel spin. He was also legendary as an announcer. If you watched figure skating in the Olympics from 1962-2006 you heard Dick Button's expert analysis.

Not obscure at all, but maybe check your facts before naming a thread, NewApp.

I’m waiting for someone to regale us with stories about Duck Button and his swimmers.

My apologies I was alluding to the obscure Olympic swimmer not the famous figure skater. 🀣🀣🀣
