               Before KIMLIN, WEIFFENBACH and WARREN, Administrative Patent Judges.                                                
               WEIFFENBACH, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                                           


                                                   DECISION ON APPEAL                                                              
                       This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the examiner's final rejection of                   
               claims 1-10 and 12-22 which are all of the claims remaining in the application.   We reverse.2                                    


               1Application for patent filed November 3,  1993.                                                                    
               2We note that in the final rejection the examiner rejected claims 1-22 as being unpatentable over Laing.  The inclusion of
               claim 11 in the rejection appears to be an inadvertent error on the part of the examiner because the examiner acknowledged
                                                                                                        (continued...)             
                                                                -1-
