                  Application No. 08/704,956                                                                                                              




                  resonance, it would appear, as indicated by appellant at page 7 of the brief, that Skrgatic                                             
                  may be trying to avoid the vibrations sought by appellant.  We agree with appellant’s                                                   
                  analysis in this regard, because we have no evidence to the contrary, and, thus, we do not                                              
                  find that Skrgatic adds anything to the disclosure of Oshima in this regard.                                                            
                           Accordingly, the examiner’s decision rejecting claim 21 under 35 U.S.C.  § 103 is                                              
                  reversed.                                                                                                                               
                                                                    REVERSED
