             Appeal No. 2006-2963                                                                                     
             Application No. 10/309,969                                                                               

             that the skilled artisan would have reasonably relied on de Boor’s teachings essentially                 
             for the reasons stated by the Examiner in the rejection.  The Examiner’s obviousness                     
             rejection of claims 2-7, 12-17, and 22-27 is therefore sustained.                                        
                    In summary, we have sustained the Examiner's rejection with respect to all                        
             claims on appeal.  Therefore, the decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1-30 is                      
             affirmed.
