                  Appeal No. 1998-2637                                                                                      Page 12                       
                  Application No. 08/470,142                                                                                                              


                  this would be the inherent result of operating the Horzewski device, we find no support in                                              
                  the reference for such a theory, and thus it stands merely as speculation on the part of the                                            
                  examiner.                                                                                                                               
                           A prima facie case of obviousness having not been established by Horzewski, we                                                 
                  will not sustain the rejection of independent claim 81 or dependent claims 83-85.
