Sega claims innocence!

Here is a e-mail reply to one i sent to Sega to ask about Daytona and Indy. Thanks for e-mailing us here at Sega Sega Writes I think you may be under a misconception. We did not buy the rights to Indy 500 or Daytona. We did pay a fee to license the use of these names and tracks. Other companies are also able to do this. Like with the NFL football games. We are licensed by the NFL to use their name and logo, but so are Electronic Arts and other software companies. I hope this clears matters up. If you have any other questions or comments please write back. Game On Treager

So Sega claims to have a "non-exclusive" license for Daytona and Indy?!? Papyrus has been saying all along that they couldn't license rights because Sega has "exclusive rights" to Daytona. Hmmm, I wonder who isn't telling the truth here? --- Frank ---

>Two men say their Jesus. ONE of them must be wrong... - (Dire Straits?) Yup, Industrial Disease from that great album Love Over Gold. Funny you should mention it, Mark Knopfler has a new album out (Golden Heart) that is his bet work in years, probably his best since Love Over Gold. Joe
