Matt, here is some news on TEXN which I own. I own some many stocks these days, I can't for the life of me remember what the float is on TEXN, or the total number of shares. I must be suffering from "stock shock", I think. Anyways, I own it and I like it . . .

Subject: Ft. Worth, Texas-(Business Wire)- November 9, 1999, - 21st Century Technologies, Inc., (OTC-BB-TEXN) announced today by Doug Spring of Trident Technologies Corp. a wholly owned subsidiary of 21st Century Technologies Inc. that the testing of the "Sea Patch" has been concluded.

Ft. Worth, Texas-(Business Wire)- November 9, 1999, - 21st Century Technologies, Inc., (OTC-BB-TEXN) announced today by Doug Spring of Trident Technologies Corp. a wholly owned subsidiary of 21st Century Technologies Inc. that the testing of the "Sea Patch" has been concluded.

Doug Spring and his assistant, Buren Palmer, met with the officials of the American Bureau of Shipping in Houston, Texas on October 29, 1999. They were given all the criteria for the testing of the "Sea Patch". Since the "Sea Patch" is the only product of its kind on the market, the guidelines that it would be tested under were completely unique.

There were three parts to this test, and they were as follows:

A pull test to test the strength of the center bolt. Results: It took around 1800 pounds of pressure to pull the "Sea Patch" off using an overhead lift.

A slide test that slides the "Sea Patch" horizontally across the table using a come-a-long. Results: It took 900 pounds of force to slide the "Sea Patch".

And the third test, the water pressure test, to test how many pounds of pressure the "Sea Patch" would hold under. Results: It took 140 pounds of pressure to blow the "Sea Patch" off.

The ABS stated that it normally takes around four weeks to complete the certification papers. These results will be sent immediately to the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy and ship owners and captains around the world.

Chairman Wilson also stated today that the gross revenues for 21st Century's subsidiaries are 10% above the third quarter results from last year.

Financial Statements in this press release other than historical facts are "forward looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company intends that such statements
about its future expectations, including future revenues and earnings, and all other forward looking statements (i.e. future operational results and sales) involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change at any time. The Company's actual results could differ materially from expected results.

The ABS certification opens the doors to U.S. Merchant Marine use, U.S. Coast Guard recommendation and U.S. Naval examination.

I talked with Ken Wilson earlier today. He said that the U.S. Coast Guard had expressed intense interest in the Sea Patch, in particular for use on barges that transport oil and chemicals via inland waterways in the U.S. He also mentioned that there were several major oil companies that were interested in the Sea Patch as a preventive measure to oil spills resulting from hull damage. There were indications that perhaps the Sea Patch might calm the environmentalist demand that supertankers be built with doubled-hulls to mitigate against hull breaches. There was even a hint that the U.S. Coast Guard might require vessels that carry oil, hazardous cargo or other environmentally damaging materials to have on board a Sea Patch or even several of the devices.

Shipping companies have several motivating factors to outfit their vessels with Sea Patches: (1) Safety of vessel, crew and cargo; (2) Safety of environment and (3) In case of a spill, the ship can show a court and jury in the inevitable lawsuit that will follow that it was concerned enough about potential damage to the environment by having a Sea Patch on board. (Don't laugh at this last item, many fines levied on ships that cause ecological damage are often increased if there is evidence the shipping company showed little regard for the environment in their actions).

The Sea Patch also has obvious applications for the military: if it can keep warships from sinking that have had hull damage, wouldn't they be worth having aboard?

What would a U.S. Navy contract for Sea Patches be worth?

What would a contract from even one major oil company be worth?

What would a mandate from the U.S. Coast Guard that certain vessels must carry a Sea Patch be worth?

What would several contracts from ordinary merchant vessels or shipping companies worldwide for Sea Patches be worth?

And the Sea Patch is one of only five divisions in TEXN.

I think we might even get rich with this stock.
