TENAX DENIES UFO GROUPS' CLAIM THAT VORTEX FIRST RELEASED EXAMPLE OF
SPACE ALIEN SOFTWARE

Denying reports by European UFO groups that Vortex software in anyway
derives from work on crashed space ships, Tenax Software Engineering
today announced that it is releasing the web version of the software for
general use in spite of fears by some groups that this release is the
beginning of a world domination scheme.

"Our Cornix applet and the Vortex application are NOT the result of any
work undertaken on alien spacecraft." said Cliff High, president of Tenax
Software Engineering. "We want to be very clear about this. Vortex and
the MARS technology are purely the work of local (earth) boys. No alien
technology is involved. We never at any time consciously modeled our work
after any example of space alien information delivery systems."

"It is true that Vortex software (and the web version, Cornix) allow
humans to read at phenomenal speeds from computer screens (up to 2000
words per minute for Vortex and 1000 words per minute for Cornix), but
these speeds are the result of careful engineering of the software to
harmonize with the biomechanical systems of the human mind/body and do
not relate in any way to
secret work on crashed alien spacecraft by the government or any private
agency." High went on to state. "We categorically deny any involvement
with any group investigating any alleged crashed alien ships."

"Our software success in augmenting human capabilities is the direct
result of interdisciplinary research into human orthotics and the
superior skills of our programming staff". High went on to say, " The
success of Vortex software for users of all reading abilities is the
result of a unique and patent pending view of the next generation of
computing, and NOT the theft of space alien intellectual property."

Further statements deny that the general release of the Cornix applet to
the world wide web community in any way are a danger to the peace and
freedom of planet earth. "The only risks to using our software are the
potential for greater understanding and comprehension in a shorter period
of time." Cliff High stated in response to the suggestion that the Cornix
applet will subvert the world. " It is true that webvertisers may have
something to fear, but the general reading population is safe except for
the possibility of entertaining a new thought".

In effort to quash any thoughts that the Cornix applet will alter
humanity more significantly than fast food or indoor plumbing, Tenax has
made a standing offer to supply a review copy of the product to any
credentialed member of the press. Such copies can be obtained by
contacting Tenax at 360.866.1686 or through email at chigh@halcyon.com.
"We'll let the press make up their own minds, is this space alien
technology or just bald earth guys with a bit of sharp thinking?"

Background - Vortex

Representing a new classification of software known as "orthotics" or
"human augmentation software", Vortex takes the computer user where no
other software dares to go... to the limits of the mind. Using a unique
patent pending display and intelligent agent technology, Vortex powers
reading into the next millennium. By separating legibility factors from
the underlying
document, Vortex provides the user with complete control over the
presentation of the document contents. Vortex augments every readers'
ability.

By harmonizing with the biomechanical aspects of the human body Vortex
delivers a new form of information transfer to the computer user.

Vortex 3.0 is the Reading Power Tool for home, office or on the road.
Even spies are power reading with Vortex. (Ask us about the CIA
connection.) Vortex 3.0 not only features speeds to 2000 words per minute
and reactive text (the ability to react to what it is helping you read),
font sizes to 3000 points, custom color control, and reactive
punctuation, it now also works with your MS Internet Mail or Internet
News Reader, or your Eudora Email program. Vortex is in the process of
being made compatible with other email programs.

Vortex 3.0 Gold retails for $79.95 and can be obtained directly from
Tenax Software Engineering at 1-800-966-1686.

Background - Cornix

Cornix is an internet version of a new type of software called
'orthotics', also known as 'Human Augmentation Software'. A java applet,
Cornix allows visitors to web pages to read the text contents with ease
and comfort at speeds up to 1000 words per minute in font sizes as large
as 200 points.

A java implementation of Vortex, the Power reading tool for computer
screens, Cornix is available for download and free use during the beta
phase. Delivering the patent pending technology from Vortex, Cornix is
easily embedded in web pages, and provides any web page with a unique
presentation. Designed for close integration with the bio-mechanisms of
the human body, Cornix provides a completely new information transfer
experience for the page visitor. Using the latest in mind-brain research,
Cornix, like Vortex, will deliver a new level of skill to readers of all
levels.

Cornix will be available at: Demo:
