Apologies that this is quite far off-topic, I'm trying to give this some traction to help out a good friend of mine that has (or had, since there's little left) his business just down the road from Solacity. Chris was actually just getting more and more into renewable energy work; installing solar panels and inverters on RVs. Here's the full story, to me it was heart-breaking to see this happen, feel free to share:

For most dealing with a fire is likely one of the worst things they will experience in life, for Chris Braunoehler of CB Customs in Kemptville, Ontario, this was the second time in 10 years his shop burned to the ground!

Chris is a one-man mechanic's shop, and the Dec. 14th fire meant he not only lost all the tools he needs for his trade, but also also his place-of-work. Chris and wife were lucky the fire department was able to save their house, right next to the shop! While he is insured, the expectation is that just like last time they will only pay for part of their loss, not to mention that he and his family need income until Chris can get back to work.

Those that know Chris know he is always there to help others. Let's try and help get him back on his feet and make his Christmas just a little better!

All the funds will go to Chris. Please consider donating, even 10 or 20 bucks will go a long way if we get enough people chipping in.

Thank you very much for your contribution!
