A friend of mine is the co-author of a commercial disk optimizer for
the Amiga - it's called "B.A.D."  (Blitz A Disk)

We were discussing what the upcoming upgrade should be called - my
vote was for "Even Worse", he wanted "Ugly" (as in Good, Bad, etc.)
but he finally settled for "B.A.D. 4.0".  Oh, well...
