          Application No. 08/222,643                                                  


          noted by the majority, I believe it would have been obvious to              
          one of ordinary skill in the art to operate the system suggested            
          by Kappus in a manner which corresponds to the "mass transit                
          method" of claim 17, thus also rendering claim 17 obvious under             
          35 U.S.C. § 103.
