          Appeal No. 1999-0855                                                        
          Application No. 08/730,468                                                  


               In conclusion, since the Examiner has not established a                
          prima facie case of obviousness, the 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection              
          of independent claims 17 and 21, and claims 18-20, 22, and 23               
          dependent thereon, is not sustained.  Therefore, the decision               
          of the Examiner rejecting claims 17-23 is reversed.
