          Application 08/158,337

          Rather than repeat the arguments of appellant or the                        
          examiner, we make reference to the brief and the answer for                 
          the respective details thereof.                                             





          OPINION                                                                     
          We have carefully considered the subject matter on                          
          appeal, the rejections advanced by the examiner, the arguments              
          in support of the rejections and the evidence of obviousness                
          relied upon by the examiner as support for the obviousness                  
          rejections.  We have, likewise, reviewed and taken into                     
          consideration, in reaching our decision, the appellant’s                    
          arguments set forth in the brief along with the examiner’s                  
          rationale in support of the rejections and arguments in                     
          rebuttal set forth in the examiner’s answer.
