Appeal No. 94-3399 Application 07/871,374 (1) Claims 1 through 12 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph, as lacking descriptive support for the invention as is now claimed in the original disclosure; and (2) Claims 1 through 12 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph, as being indefinite for failing to particularly point and distinctly claim the subject matter which applicants regard as their invention. OPINION Rather than reiterate the conflicting viewpoints advanced by the examiner and appellants in support of their respective positions, reference is made to appellants' brief and to the examiner's answer for the full exposition thereof. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm the rejection of claim 2 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph, but reverse the remaining rejections of the appealed claims under 35 U.S.C. § 112, first and second paragraphs.
