This is code from an alpha version of EUtils used at a presentation. I 
don't think it was meant to be reproducible, or even made it into the 
final module.

You might want to look under the hood. There is a README file in the 
EUtils installation, which has some examples.

But NCBI change the EUtils specifications quite frequently, so chances 
are, if no one used EUtils ofr a while, that it might be broken.
