Hello John, I posted about this back in March, but to recap:
The US applications are just that, applications. They are not patents. You're looking in the right spot, but they haven't published yet so no publication number and no love for you. When they publish, you will be able to read them. The Korean apps hadn't published in March when I looked, you can try again now at KIPRIS. The actual granted patents are all Romanian, pat #'s are sequential and US numbers are into the 6000000's now. 100000 would be in the colonial period... Try Espacenet for those patents, for example, RO112312 GAS-GAS TYPE HEAT EXCHANGERS WITH THERMIC TUBES All the Romanian IP looks to have been acquired rather than developed in house. You ask, "What to think?" I would say, exercise due diligence, and use the cortex part of the brain rather than the limbic system. Unfashionable advice these days, but what can I say, I've got to be me.

I just tried to look up iESiUSA's patent applications and suppossedly approved patent numbers on the USPTO website. Guess what? Nothing by the name of iESiUSA or any of their provided number can be found in the USPTO database?!? What to think? Not a good sign from a company making extrodinary claims. Look for yourself: http://assignments.uspto.gov/assignments/?db=pat http://appft1.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-bool.html For the numbers, see: http://www.iesiusa.com/intellectual.html
