DECISION ON APPEAL
This is a decision on an appeal from the primary examiner’s
non-final rejection of claims 1 through 6, which are the only
claims pending in this application. Although the examiner’s
action dated Nov. 20, 2003, was non-final, the claims on appeal
have been twice rejected and thus we have jurisdiction pursuant
to 35 U.S.C. § 134 (2003). See Ex parte Lemoine, 46 USPQ2d 1420,
1422-23 (Bd. Pat. App. & Int. 1998).
