Dear Iguensat,

This discussion has by now pretty well resolved itself, but I will
throw in my vote anyway. Forgive yourself for not being able to
protect your tools the way you would have liked to. Forgive you
sister. She probably misses you a lot when you are gone. She probably
admires you a great deal since you are her big brother. She probably
was just trying to get a closer idea of who you are and understand
what you do. She probably would like to spend more time with you
although that is difficult when you live far away. And I agree with
the person said she probably needed the experience and seeing them.

Love, Dorothy
