DECISION ON APPEAL
This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of
claims 5 through 9. An amendment after final rejection (paper
no. 8) canceled claim 9 and replaced it with claim 10. Thus
the claims on appeal are 5 through 8 and 10, all claims 1
pending in this application.
1As noted by the Examiner, the appendix to the brief
included a slight error in claim 8, i.e., “Al” had been
omitted from the claim.
