Appeal No. 1998-0976 Application 08/379,722 recognizes the problem of electrical static charge building up between the base covering and the flexible jacket covering. Furthermore, upon our review of Schwöpfinger, we fail to find that Schwöpfinger supplies this missing piece as well. In view of the foregoing, we have not sustained the rejection of claims 1 through 15 and 20 through 47 under 35 U.S.C. § 103. Accordingly, the Examiner's decision is reversed. REVERSED LEE E.
