                      This is a decision on appeal from the examiner's refusal to allow claims 1-19, which are                   
               all of the claims pending in this application.  An amendment to claims 1, 13, 16, 17 and 19 and                   
               a substitute specification (Paper No. 16), filed February 5, 1999 subsequent to the final                         
               rejection, have both been entered (see Paper No. 17 and page 2 of the answer).  The                               
               amendment after final rejection to claims 13 and 17 filed concurrently with the brief (Paper No.                  
               20) and again with the reply brief (see Paper Nos. 24 and 26) and the amendment (Paper No.                        
               27) to the specification filed concurrently with the reply brief have not been entered (see Paper                 
               No. 28).  We additionally note that the appellant's substitute specification filed February 20,
