That's pretty far south for polar bears in August. I don't think the culprits are anyone I know.
My family and I, including our two daughters, Fiona (10) and Georgia (6), both fans of Irving and Muktuk, were in Mount Desert Island this August, and came across an intriguing front-page headline from the Bangor Daily News, August 17, 2007:

Needless to say, we bought a paper and I was thinking I should send it to you. Let me know if you’d like the copy, or a JPEG of the newstand.
We are all fans of your work–thanks for all of the chuckles!
Monica, Ian, Fiona, and Georgia
