               In reaching our decision in this appeal, we have given                 
          careful consideration to the appellant's specification and                  
          claims, to the applied prior art references, and to the                     
          respective positions articulated by the appellant and the                   
          examiner.  As a consequence of our review, we make the                      
          determinations which follow.                                                


          The 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph, rejection.                           
               We cannot sustain the examiner's rejection of appellant's              
          claims 1 through 6 and 12 through 18 under 35 U.S.C. § 112.                 

                                          5
