	Dick Smith - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dick Smith (born 18 March 1944) is an Australian businessman and aviator.
		Smith didn't want to greatly expand Australian Geographic, but his friend and CEO Ike Bain convinced him to change his mind and soon it was a thriving business.
		Smith has also attempted a number of well-publicised practical jokes, the grandest of which was the "attempt" to tow an iceberg from Antarctica to Australia to obtain more fresh water.

	Dick Smith Foods - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
