[PRL] scratch

[Viera K. Proulx]

I took care of the conflict by being stuck with students who needed  
help.

Andres gave a presentation (at my invitation) at the IMICT 2007  
conference I ran in June - that is where Ken Grady who was a student  
helper found him and that led to the invitation. (Mitch Resnick gave  
a keynote there and we had a visit to the Computer Clubhouse to see  
Scratch in action.)
