When Prizewise has TV ads and the European market open up, watch out! I am holding long.
I wonder that lawsuit, whch they are appealing, is the reason for the drop in pps?
the lawsuit is a major chunk of non productive capital lost, and a stain on tfct's image. it has imho neutralized the equivalent amount of net profit if the appeal is unsuccessful, as most are. not the end of the world butcertainly not good for the bottom line.

Nothing to worry about the lawsuit (for the moment)
Contrarian examples are: 1. LFTC won the appeal (and now is trying to reach an agreement) 2. USXP won a case for more than 200m! but they haven't seen a cent so i think we will have the final word of Wilson case in years

21st Century's Portfolio Investment Company, Trident Technologies, Demonstrates Product Effectiveness at U.S. Maritime Security Expo
LAS VEGAS, Sep 29, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- 21st Century Technologies, Inc. (TFCT) today announced that its portfolio investment company, Trident Technologies, Inc., has continued to increase awareness of Trident's patented magnetic patch technology to a broad range of potential customers, including an array of U.S. government departments and agencies, with its presence as an exhibitor at the U.S. Maritime Security Expo in New York City last week.
The Expo drew a comprehensive and impressive list of attendees including Port Operators and Administrators, Terminal Operators, the U.S. Customs Service, the U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Department of Transportation, the U.S. Department of Justice, a number of oil company executives, the U.S. Department of Defense, European and Asian government and industry officials, the U.S. Navy Military Sealift Command (MSC), the U.S. Army Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) and shipping and trucking lines. A full attendees profile can be viewed at http://www.maritimesecurityexpo.com/whoattends.html.
Decision-makers from each of these entities were presented demonstrations illustrating the reliability and functionality of the SeaPatch magnetic-powered quick seal device and its ability to seal any type of leak. The device has been successfully used on large and small circular punctures, jagged tears, and even bullet holes to avert disasters that are natural, accidental or caused by acts of terror. Expo attendee, the U.S. Department of Defense, recently received $1 million funding in its newly approved spending bill to purchase patch devices from Trident.
Jim Branch, president of Trident Technologies, who attended the event and met with representatives from a number of entities listed in the attendee profile, commented, "The Expo allowed potential customers the chance for a `hands on' experience with our products. The placing of one of our patches on a steel plate always makes a positive impact. The show was also beneficial in generating new ideas and prospects for customized magnetic solutions for other marine applications other than leak sealing, such as marine salvage operations."
SeaPatch and ProMag magnetic-powered quick seal devices have been type-approved by the American Bureau of Shipping and are used during emergency response training at the Department of Transportation's Emergency Response School in Pueblo, Colorado, the Louisiana Emergency Response Training Center and the Texas Engineering Extension Service. An A & E Network "Behind Closed Doors" series program, hosted by Joan Lunden and aired on August 3, 2002, documented SeaPatch's effectiveness in the largest and one of the best fire training facilities in the world where fire and HAZMAT professionals simulate every possible scenario including a mock city, railroad cars, industrial refineries, aircraft and ships. The video can be viewed through the Trident website at http://www.seapatch.net/aande.htm.

I also agree with you guys. Although it seems that the current pps is certainly a bargain price. I don't doubt that in the coming week or two, we'll see another PR which will drive this up another penny. Posts: 156 | From: Philadelphia, PA, USA | Registered: Jan 2004

The market is a big guessing game where all of the traders try to guess what the average trader thinks the average opinion will be. It's nonsensical. Look for value. I think this stock is undervalued and time will realize this.

AHHHGGGHHH!! This stock is driving me crazy. I bought 25,000 more shares yesterday when it hit .035 because I didn't believe it would go any lower. Then it just dropped some more. I'm hanging on though. I really think this stock is going to make us all a lot of money. I just wish it would make up it's mind already.
By the way Shushan...

There could be a thousand of thos pr's and nothing would really happen. I think they are primarily put out for awareness reasons. As a shareholder I see those and think to myself, that in time things will come of those types of announcements. I to am disapointed, how could you not be when several weeks ago we were above 10 cents. But all it was, was hype. Things are moving in the right direction, at least from what I can tell. In time the pps will reflect that. Income will be rising steadily, and with that pps. GLTA.

Personally I think the whole penny market has been in the tank for about the last two or three months. I will say it again. I think one of the biggest reasons is the election. I think once the election is over and we know who is going to be pres, investors will be able to make better calculated decisions with their money. I also think Iraq and the price of oil have some to do with it but not as much as the election does. Just get it over and move on so we can start making money again.

i have a feeling that with the recent changes in naked shorting rules, the pps moves (especially in penny land) are not as dramatic or frenzy feeding as they were before. things have tightened up and so has the perceived reaction to news.

anyone notice that 3.2mm minute at just before 2pm? .03-.031. stands out there like a tower on today's vol line. i am buying again in the low .03's. this is one of the few pennies that seems real. hope i'm right.

21st Century's prizeWise Announces New User Referral Tool
LAS VEGAS, Sep 29, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- 21st Century Technologies Inc.'s (TFCT) portfolio investment company, prizeWise Inc., today announced the implementation of a new user referral tool.
The program allows users to enter up to 10 e-mail addresses at a time of their friends and associates and sends out an e-mail on the users' behalf. The message introduces prizeWise and invites the recipient to sign up for membership.
PrizeWise then places five free tickets into the referring member's account for each of the new members who becomes a paying customer and purchases at least $15 worth of coupons on the Web site.
"Our customers demonstrate a high degree of loyalty to our company," said Steve Rinehart, president of prizeWise. "Some of our best publicity has come from their efforts. They're some of our most valuable affiliates," he added.
Affiliate Marketing has long been one of the most effective advertising channels on the Internet. In a study published by the Aberdeen Group in September 2003, Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon.com, was quoted as saying: "Developing over 1 million affiliate sites is one of Amazon's best investments, and it is totally measurable. We have scaled back on TV and wish we had come to that conclusion earlier because television is simply not as measurable."
The new user referral program serves as yet another development for prizeWise in the successful affiliate marketing arena.

Another great day for this promisong stock.
Has anybody read anything in a newspaper, magazine, internet article, etc. about PrizeWise and it's whole idea. You would think by now someone would write a review of the web site, especially in regards to E-bay.
LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 30, 2004--21st Century Technologies, Inc.'s (OTCBB:TFCT) portfolio investment company, prizeWise, Inc., announced that the prizeWise.com website generated its highest single day sales total earlier this week. "Sales reached $7,736.00 for the 24-hour period ended 5 PM MST Tuesday, September 28, 2004. This sudden increase is in direct response to inviting existing users back to the site with the 107% for 7 days promotion," said Steve Rinehart, President of prizeWise. Mr. Rinehart added, "We're looking to the future and focusing on increasing the lifetime value of our users. Other features such as new payment options, full credit card processing ability and increased site capacity have steadily increased sales, and we expect our reactivation efforts to increase both sales and sweepstakes closings in the weeks ahead." Rinehart also said, "Our previous sales record was just under $7,000.00 after a 5,000,000 mass email campaign. This fresh approach is far more cost effective and less resource intensive." The 107% for 7 days promotion, which runs until October 6th, is a celebration of the new merchant account processing relationship. Users of prizeWise who make new coupon purchases using a credit card will receive additional coupon value and chances to win. 21st Century Technologies is a Business Development Company, operated pursuant to the Investment Companies Act of 1940. It holds various enterprises as investments and seeks to grow companies in which it has an interest.

I got to laugh at the pps reaction to news on this stock. It's like watching Monty Python's "The Holy Grail" where they would say "And there was much rejoicing", then a little low toned "Yeah" would follow and that would be it. That's the pps, it goes up just a little and drops back down right away.
