"If you have any questions about obtaining OBJ3, please call Judith
Burgess at [phone] or contact us by email at
[e-mail].  For technical questions, please contact Mr.
Timothy Winkler at [phone] or by email at [e-mail]."

OBJ runs on top of AKCL.  You need licenses for both OBJ and KCL in
order to use it, but both of those licenses are free.  You can order a
full tape from SRI for US$150.
