   Maybe I'm going too far in my skepticism, but, how do we know he   
   really is who he says he is? We have anonymous email addresses   
   and a reference to three patents. Sure, there is a common name   
   amongst those three, but that doesn't necessarily mean that's who   
   he is. I could select three patents, too.

   Yes it is, if he's legit. If this is legit, then I hope he takes   
   my criticisms as construtive. That is, the way he's presenting   
   himself doesn't gather the right kind of attention. Perhaps he's   
   not aware of the vast numbers of folks on the internet who are   
   anonymous and making claims who are either self deluded folks   
   with serious psychological issues who think they know more than   
   the experts, or are just outright scammers.

   Could either be the approach, or that there is no merit to the   
   claims.
