I know that this is off-topic, but in the circumstances I hope that you will
excuse the intrusion. I have close connections to Dunblane, and following
the tragedy last week I'd like to make the following information as widely
available as possible.

The local newspaper in the Dunblane area, The Stirling Observer, has started
a Dunblane Help Fund and you can contact them
on the telephone at +44 (0)1786 446884.
This fund is reported to currently (20th March 1996) be worth #155,000.
Scotweb has joined with The Stirling Observer to accept online donations by
credit card using a secure donation form. If you
don't have a secure browser you can also use the standard donation form.

St Andrew's Society of Detroit Dunblane Relief
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The St Andrew's Society of Detroit has setup a Dunblane relief fund and
within 4 days had collected over $10,500 (US),
letters, cards and Teddy Bears. If you want to donate anything via them,
then email Fred Wessells on [log in to unmask]
Email and letters
==============
A special Email box has also been setup that will pass on messages to the
school, it can be reached at [log in to unmask] (this is being run
by Almac, not myself).
The Royal Mail has setup a freepost snail-mail address for messages of
sympathy and it's at.... "Freepost Dunblane"
Gun Control
==========
Many people have expressed a wish for tighter gun controls. If you are a UK
resident the most effective method is to write to your MP. There is also a
wep page at http://139.153.183.144/dunblane.htm to collect names for a
petition calling for a ban.
