          Interference No. 103,435                                                    




          could go in and out of the building freely (C.R. 0414).                     
          However, there is some confusion in the record about whether                
          when the witnesses refer to the Technology and Ventures                     
          laboratory they are referring to the building itself or to the              
          rooms in which the plasma and corona testing was taking place               
          (C.R. 01760).                                                               
               Larry Blake denies knowing about the corona and plasma                 
          work with haptics and optics while a consultant at Allergan.                
          While the Junior party argues and Ralph Kafesjian testifies                 
          that it would not be possible for Larry Blake not to know                   
          about the plasma and corona work being performed, Gene Currie,              
          Mario Maricevic and Carlos Gallastegui who also worked at                   
          Allergan during the period, testify that they were not aware                
          of the plasma and corona work being done on the haptics and                 
          optics connection (Blake Record “B.R.” 0409; 0611, 0545).  In               
          fact Gallestegui states:                                                    
                    I am not saying that the party Christ et                          
                    al’s witnesses are lying ... the way they                         
                    were working on a plasma surface treatment                        
                    alternative to mechanical anchors ... if                          
                    they were, it must have been a very low key
