          Application 08/442,525                                                      



                    We have also reviewed the prior art teachings of                  
          Horiuchi and Muscat, but we find therein no teaching or sug-                
          gestion that can supply the missing features we have pointed                
          out with regard to Fleemin.  Accordingly, we are constrained                
          to reverse the rejections of all claims on appeal.
