GRB990704 optical observation by Michel Boer (fwd)

　光学対応天体候補としては比較的明るい(mag 19.4)ものが候補に上がっています。
　条件のよい位置ですので、CCDをお使いの方は向けてみてください。

We forward an e-mail by Michel Boer which is trying to send a urgent GCN
circular about GRB990704 with several mailer errors back. The text should
be useful for all observers.
