                  Application No. 08/171,427                                                                                                              

                                                                  CONCLUSION                                                                              
                           Appellant has shown the rejection of dependent claims 9 and 14 to be erroneous,                                                
                  but has not shown reversible error in the rejection of claims 1-3, 5-8, 10-13, or 15.                                                   
                  Accordingly, the rejection of claims 1-3, 5-8, 10-13, and 15 is affirmed, but the rejection of                                          
                  claims 9 and 14 is reversed.  The examiner’s decision in rejecting claims 1-3 and 5-15 is                                               
                  thus affirmed-in-part.                                                                                                                  
                           No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may                                             
                  be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a).
