DECISION ON APPEAL
This is an appeal pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the final
rejection of claims 28, 31, 33-39, and 62-69. In the answer, the
examiner indicated that claim 31 would be allowable if rewritten
in independent form. Thus, remaining for our consideration is
the appeal from the rejections of claims 28, 33-39, and 62-69.
