The independence of the review seems pretty questionable to me. The company (Thomson &Gale) competes against such services. Sounds really like "open source is bad for you"-article by a medium sized IT company selling products that are available for free.
Besides: For a quick check Google Scholar gets the same job done real well, for a thorough review you need other sources.
Oh, but discombobulating format will now enter my active vocabulary.
And then there are the CEO of multinational corporation who might not be broke but seriously unhappy. Dropping in or out - your happiness is dependent on you and what you make of it.
A while ago I started to change my passwords often and use the titles (scientific) articles connected to my work to provide me with passwords by using first or last letters of the words (plus the odd number/sign). I can change them often, usually, I can recall the paper (because I usually have read it) but because I did read them, they don't even sit on my table. And I can always look them up in Medline...
What I loose in redundancy I make up in lenghts of the passwords (the current one has 13 letters...)
The paper was published in 2003 and was cited twice in total - by themselves (I just checked Web of Science). If there would be a real advancement behind this, many people would use it. Sad but true, but they sound like quacks.

Strange, the usually well informed German IT news site www.heise.de has very different numbers.
They talk about 5 years in jail and a 250.000$ fine.
Sounds more reasonable (but too little for the Biggest Hacker, eh?)
