Disclosure
In the interest of full disclosure, I was originally asked by Xenith Corp to write a written review of the paper in question with remuneration. However, upon completion of the review, I discovered major technical problems with the paper both from the point of view of the technical basis for the paper as well as the glaring omissions and errors in the paper. I decided that I cannot stand idly by to let this paper stand unchallenged. I have asked Xenith Corp. to refrain from paying me or Wayne State University for this work.
