[Fiorentino Sarro]

Hi Pete. You are an education boss.
I know your work and I Iove it.
In particular, I use Code Club method and I'd want analyze your PhD
document.
I teach in an italian school with children from 11-14 and I use Blender in
my special project in many groups.
I'm available for all.
Thank you very much in advance.
Fiorentino Sarro.
