Appeal No. 1998-0527 Application No. 08/344,325 Hoover (or Nelson) for the limitations of claim 10, we conclude that the examiner has failed to establish a prima facie case of obviousness. In summary, we do not sustain the examiner’s rejection of claims 3-6 and 8-11 based on the teachings of Hoover and Nelson. Therefore, the decision of the examiner rejecting claims 3-6 and 8-11 is reversed. REVERSED John C.
