          Appeal No. 96-1928                                                          
          Application 07/504,679                                                      


          claims the examiner adds to this basic combination of                       
          references LisaList:                                                        
          claims 3, 5, 7, 9, 13, 26, 33, 43, 54, 55, 71, 72, 76, 79, 80,              
          82, 83, 85-91, 100, 101, 106-110, 114-117, 123-127, 128-140,                
          144, 145, 147-158.  These rejections are set forth at page 3                
          of the initial examiner's answer dated April 28, 1995.  As to               
          the second rejection, the examiner does not explicitly include              
          here a rejection of claim 122, although it is expressed at                  
          page 7 of answer.  The bottom of page 10 of this answer                     
          reveals the examiner's intent to reject claims 79-91 under 35               
          U.S.C. § 103 including claims 84, 87, 88, 89 and 90, although               
          it is not clear under which rejection of the stated rejections              
          the examiner intends to reject these latter claims.  In any                 
          event, based upon our decision, this question is moot.                      


               Rather than repeat the positions of the appellants and                 
          the examiner, reference is made to the briefs and the answers               
          for the respective details thereof.                                         
                                       OPINION                                        
               Generally for the reasons expressed by appellants in the               
          initial portions of the brief and reply brief dealing with the              
                                          4
