<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">I have been copied in on the correspondence you have had with IODP about biostratigraphic software and must take issue with your contribution to this discussion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">A StrataBugs licence does not cost $5000/year as you state. For small businesses there is a
<u>one off</u> charge (currently £5366) and we do offer an <u>optional </u>maintenance contract (currently £537).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">However, for academic institutions (and IODP would be considered as such) we offer a range of licencing options, outright purchase or various leasing arrangements at a fraction of this cost. You
of all people should know this as you have licenced StrataBugs in the past for your students at the University of Nebraska at a very favourable rate!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Regarding chart size – our major clients are in industry and they like big charts. However, if you were familiar with the lastest version of StrataBugs you would know that charts of publishable
quality are now possible. In fact I have three papers in press that use StrataBugs charts!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">We request that you immediately retract your incorrect and misleading comments in writing and send to all those you previously circulated.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
