I'll say!  Glorious new object, and let's fire with all cylinders.  The 
AM CVn outbursts, even the supers, don't usually last long.  Just a 
spectacular new CBA target!

And it's time now to pick up the monitoring of V1159 Ori in the evening 
sky.  In a week the Suzaku observation will start.  We definitely want 
snapshots to cover its wanderings in the 4 d mini-outburst cycle... but 
also time series to monitor for superhumps (the latter applying to the 
Suzaku times mainly, so for now the monitoring is the main thing).

  ... And yet another interesting short-period AM CVn-type target found 
in outburst by MASTER.
