Dennis, FIDONET and USENET may be two different things.  You are most surely
right, a lot of files don't make it from FIDONET to SIMTEL and CICA.  However,
if you could be a little more specific in a file name, perhaps someone will
upload it to an archive site and make it available for FTP.  The FIDONET
Software Distribution System is found on many FTP'able sites.  For instance,
ZEUSS.IEEE.ORG has an area called pub/fidonet/sds.  You might check places
like that for more information.
