It appears to be a very effective non-lethal weapon. If you are ever in trouble, you bring it out and threaten to play it.

John, from your link, I see a facebook page photo which includes a noted modern composer and a group of musicians holding traditional clarinet variants and some other instruments that resemble recorders. Is that the correct link?
OR :
From the link on curiousclarinetist's post, I see instruments designed by E. Michael Richards (NO, not the actor from Seinfeld).
On my desk (Not my computer desktop) I see items produced by Howard Leight Co. http://www.howardleight.com/ Do you suggest they be used in conjunction with at least one of the instruments?

I think I remember some posts about this instrument a couple of years or so back. Some members of this forum posted that they had seen and played it, and there were some audio clips of it. Didn't sound very good to me.

"Have they written any four hand clarinet pieces yet?"

To quote Schoenberg correctly (toward the end of his life):
"There is plenty of good music yet to be written in C major"

John, it appears similar to an Armenian Duduk, and they have some similar wooden instrumets there in the middle east. Look on my facebook pages sometime and you'll see a Duduk. Some of the instruments from that region use a double reed and some have just a recorder type mouthpiece. I have even seen Duduks with clarinet keys on them and a clarinet with the traditional Duduk mouthpiece, a Ghamish in place of the traditional reed and mouthpiece.
