          Application 08/274,123                                                       

          associated therewith."  Therefore, the Examiner has failed to                
          establish a prima facie case of obviousness with respect to                  
          claims 7-16.  The rejection of claims 7-16 is reversed.

               The rejections of claims 2-16 are reversed.
