          Appeal 1997-2447                                                             
          Application 08/248,500                                                       

          point to the portions of Patel and Davis which might                         
          reasonably justify a requirement that applicant present                      
          evidence.  Compare In re Spada, 911 F.2d 705, 15 USPQ2d 1655                 
          (Fed. Cir. 1990); In re Best, 562 F.2d 1252, 195 USPQ 430                    
          (CCPA 1977).                                                                 
                                REVERSED and REMANDED.
