Not good.

Who is the intended audience of the site? The home page is lacking in information and pretty poorly done.

all I could do was to laugh.
I think you guys are probably right, either hacked or really bad translation.

Re: Some interesting descriptions!

too funny, I wonder how much of that is an issue with the inventors original language? certainly the attorney's should have caught that? Where is Doug (our resident patent attorney) for his input on this? Guess I won't have to contract his services, that was exactly what I was going to invent, down to the part number!
