Dear Mike,

I don't know if this e-mail will reach you...
We have seen the terrible images of the Canberra fires yesterday,
and I have received news from Stromlo via Sylvie Beaulieu (she
built a web page with many links to images and press releases).

She told me that Ken Freeman's house was destroyed. I hope yours
was far from the fires.

Messages circulated today among CASCA board members (Canadian
Astronomical Society) asking how Canadian astronomers could
best help you. I know it will take a long time before organizing
the reconstruction, but if there is anything we could do to
help don't hesitate to ask.

Best wishes,

Laurent
