Rather than reiterate the conflicting viewpoints advanced
by the examiner and the appellants regarding the above-noted
rejections, we make reference to the final rejection (Paper
No. 7, mailed February 5, 1997) and the examiner's answer
(Paper No. 11, mailed August 29, 1997) for the examiner's
complete reasoning in support of the rejections, and to the
appellants' brief (Paper No. 10, filed July 7, 1997) and reply
brief (Paper No. 12, filed November 4, 1997) for the
appellants' arguments thereagainst.
