OK, sorry it took me a while to get to this.  Here are some question:
1.  Can you tell us how the game Lemmings was developed?  What was the inspiration for the game?  How involved were you?
2.  Can you tell us how things were like when DMA was working with Nintendo?  
3.  I see that you're an amateur movie-maker and that you're involved with Star Trek Intrepid.  How did that get all started?

Going to the final frontier, gaming...
