Hi Guys,
Sierra was always my favorite game company. Back in the early years I shared
my love of games with my students while
teaching them programming. I also gave my daughters from an early age games like "Mixed Up Mother Goose" and "Mixed up Fairy Tales" then graduated them to the Kings Quest series and
Ecoquest. Despite what the media tries to tell people(about computer games) it never had an ill effect since all three received scholarships to college. Ken Williams deserves a lot of credit for his leadership and game selection. Keep up the good work guys!
