                     This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the examiner's final                        
              rejection of claims 1-17, which are all the claims in the application.                                     
                     We reverse.                                                                                         






                     1We note apparent discrepancies in paper numbering in the instant file wrapper.  We follow the      
              convention of recent papers and deem this to be Paper No. 26.
