          Appeal No. 1999-0016                                                        
          Application 08/638,071                                                      


               We fail to find that the Examiner has established a prima              
          facie case of obviousness.  Therefore, in view of the                       
          foregoing, we will not sustain the Examiner’s rejection of                  
          claims 1 through 12 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.
