               Appeal No. 2005-1693                                                                                                  
               Application No. 10/192,333                                                                                            

               compositional CF2 fraction and a low degree of cross-linking density); see also Specification at                      
               8, lines 16-21.                                                                                                       
                       For the reasons set forth above, the combined teachings of Warby and Gleason would                            
               have suggested the method of claim 2 to one of ordinary skill in the art.  Their combined                             
               teachings also provide a reasonable expectation of success.  Therefore, the rejection of claim 2                      
               under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over the combination of Warby and Gleason is                           
               affirmed.                                                                                                             
                       Claims 1 and 3 through 11 stand or fall with the patentability of claim 2.  Therefore, the                    
               rejection of claims 1 and 3 through 11 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over the                        
               combination of Warby and Gleason is also affirmed.
