          Appeal No. 1998-1981                                                        
          Application No. 08/695,899                                                  


          teaches a volume current conveyance means as shown as Element               
          4 and a surface current conduction and strength means shown as              
          Element 9.  For the same reasons as we set forth above, we                  
          will not sustain the rejections of claims 1 through 8, and 11               
          through 16.                                                                 



















               In view of the foregoing, we have not sustained the                    
          rejection of claims 9 and 10 under 35 U.S.C. § 102.  In                     
          addition, we have not sustained the rejection of claims 1                   
          through 8 and 11 through 16 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.                          


                                          8
