          Appeal No. 1998-0694                                                        
          Application No. 08/637,009                                                  


          We acknowledge appellant’s invitation to revisit the                        
          previous decision of the Board and to declare that decision as              
          being erroneous.  We do not understand what appellant’s                     
          request has to do with this appeal unless appellant desires to              
          resubmit the claims that were determined to be unpatentable in              
          the previous decision.  In that event, we take this                         
          opportunity, instead, to reaffirm all the findings and                      
          conclusions made by that panel of the Board in the previous                 
          decision.                                                                   
          In summary, we have not sustained either of the                             
          examiner’s rejections of the claims on this record.                         
          Therefore, the decision of the examiner rejecting claims 22,                
          24-28 and 30-36 is reversed.                                                
                                      REVERSED

                                                       )

                                                       )
