          Appeal No. 95-4501                                                          
          Application No. 07/827,549                                                  

          required in the face of the examiner’s failure to specifically              
          set forth a prima facie case of anticipation and/or                         
          obviousness, specifically identifying where, and how, Daniels,              
          and/or Hester and Daniels in the case of the additional                     
          rejection of claims 17 and 18, suggests the claimed limitation              
          of “starting and stopping operations...”                                    
               We make no representations that the instant claimed                    
          subject matter may not somehow be anticipated, or made                      
          obvious, by Daniels and/or Hester.  We reverse the instant                  
          rejections solely on the grounds that the examiner has failed               
          to present any convincing line of reasoning that would                      
          establish a prima facie case of anticipation and/or                         
          obviousness.
