PRESS RELEASE (Extrct.)

Discoveries with the wonder drug Neurobattium have lead researchers to
increase the speed of neural transmissions by up to factor six.

This means that "Virtualy Reality Personality Experiences" would no longer
be limited to real-time transfer rates -allowing patients to live up to
five times longer than the transfer period.

Personality-Bat Director Trevor Batten (no relation to the artist of the same
name) said personality determining experiences would be replayed under
anaesthetic so patients would not be aware of their transference to the new
clone.

"If we artificially age the new model before transference, they simply
wake up thinking it was a normal night sleep. The old body simply doesn't
wake up", he said "If nobody tells them, then they won't even know".

Personality-Bat shares doubled in value overnight as other high-tech
companies are clearly willing to make substantial investments in order to
keep personnel with intensive knowlege longer in service.
