any of you scurrilous oil dogs familiar with this product, does anyone have any experience with the MICRO GREEN OIL FILTER?

here's the claims from the website:
The microGreenTM oil filter offers tremendous benefits
and significant competitive advantages over conventional filters:
2 Filters in 1 system keeping oil cleaner, longer
Patented microfilter captures particles down to 2 microns
65-70% reduction in oil maintenance costs
Potential for up to 5% improvement in fuel efficiency
70% reduction in oil use
50% reduction in filter use
Improved engine life and vehicle maintenance
Better for the environment
US Patents issued: 6,605,215 and 7,048,848
The microGreenTM oil filter is the most advanced technological leap in engine filtration in 30 years. It replaces a conventional oil filter assembly without requiring any modifications to the engine or filter housing. By continuously filtering a small portion of the engine oil through the patented microfilter system, the microGreenTM filtration system allows your vehicle to operate up to 30,000 miles without changing the engine oil.
Installation & Use
Installs and removes like a conventional filter
The microGreenTM filter is simple to use and makes engine oil maintenance much easier and less expensive. When the vehicle is serviced, the oil is changed and the microGreenTM filter is installed. At every other oil change interval, the microGreenTM filter is changed but the oil remains in the engine and is simply "topped-up" if necessary.
Thus, for vehicles with a 3,000 mile oil change interval, a new microGreenTM filter is installed every 6,000 miles but the oil is not changed until 24,000 miles (see chart below). For vehicles with a suggested change interval of 5,000 miles or higher, the microGreenTM filter is changed every 10,000 miles and the oil can be used up to 30,000 miles.
The microGreenTM oil filter replaces a conventional oil filter assembly without requiring any modifications to the engine or the filter housing. It has the same specifications as a traditional spin-on oil filter - steel base plate, standard attachment threads, standard filter sizes, internal pressure relief valve, anti-drainback valve, and high quality pleated filter media. Therefore, it is installed and removed like a conventional filter, requiring no change in installation technique.
