this is the old account of @scratchboy3605 made during a voluntary library program; i finally recovered it after almost 8 years thanks to the excellent Scratch Team support, especially @Paddle2See...

...who sent me an alert almost immediately after i made the forum post. see this post: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/900450/
