FLASH NEWS REPORT

As a service to our readers, this is a reminder that with the upcoming active conference and resulting news cycle,Leo will be using the "plain English" format that was agreed to yesterday with Dana Farber.

With that in mind,you may see news saying "All the cancer patients have been healed and have gone home,the hospital is empty.The staff is no longer eating PB&J sandwiches and have gone back to Ham and cheese etc..Dr.Shapiro is back to using his "Put-O-Matic" golf putting practice system in his office and Leo and Dr.Menon have taken vacation time to survey the known universe in order to buy it.

Meanwhile the "naysayers and shorts and competition" will be using scientist's misunderstanding of the "Plain English"format and saying ,"Where are the p21 results and the resulting p53 activation confirmations?We need the blood counts.Just because everyone is healed and gone home is a coincidence."

Therefore we suggest to CTIX that the PR be crafted in a "negative" fashion such as,"CTIX is chagrined to inform our shareholders that the trials have done so well that everyone is healed and has returned home.The hospital is empty.The p21 and p53 labs are fabulous and will be released at the appropriate time.Meanwhile Dr.Menon and I,Leo will be enjoying our summer surveying real estate and Dr.Shapiro should have time to improve his golf game.We apologize for any short term inconvenience.We only ask that everyone remember "Andrew" who is the only patient left in the hospital.Hospitals can be a lonely place so any gifts of chew toys for Andrew would be appreciated by both Andrew and the staff."
