          Appeal No. 1999-1095                                                         
          Application 08/751,632                                                       

          In any event, it is too late to be challenging, in a request                 
          for rehearing, findings made by the examiner in the examiner’s               
          answer, where no reply was filed to rebut the finding.  An                   
          adverse decision is not an invitation for new arguments.                     
                                      Conclusion                                       
               For the foregoing reasons, the request for rehearing is                 
          DENIED.                                                                      
               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                      
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                     
          § 1.136(b).
