[Grega Leskovšek]

Dear Kathy, are You the owner or somehow others connected to the firm Sierra Games (already I believe on Commodore or at least on old PCs)?
Wishing You all the very best, Gregor from Slovenia

[Kathy Sierra]

Hi there Grega,
No, I'm not the owner or related to the people from Sierra Entertainment, but.... there IS a connection. My last name and the game company were both named after the Sierra Nevada mountains. The game company was started in the foothills of the Sierras, within just a few miles of my uncle's cattle ranch, and I grew up skiing in the Sierras. My last name comes from my love of that area.
