re Fishonabike
I had been wondering about your handle and am somewhat relieved to know the reason (visited your site for further info - thanks for the effort).
Why was I a bit funny over it? Well, being the good little "PC" person I am, thought it best not to say anything.............coz round these parts "A fish on a bike" has strong lesbian connotations!! Gloria Steinern's quote "Women need men like fish need bicycles" was EVERYWHERE in the mid to late 70's in Sydney - on bumper stickers, protest placards (eg at pro-abortion rallies) and screamed by those of the burnt bra set.
(BTW - If you wanted to set up a commercial website for the Australian lesbian community I doubt there'd be a better name for it!!)
