          shaped pattern electrode, "[c]onductors 5A and 5B are                       
          alternately printed at predetermined intervals on the inner                 
          side of layer 4."  Col. 4, ll. 30-32.  "The conductors 5A and               
          5B form electrodes ...."  Id. at l. 50.  If conductors 5A and               
          5B of Satomura were substituted for either conductive layer                 
          150 or 152 of Nakajima, current supplied to the substituted                 
          conductors 5A or 5B would flow therebetween.  No current would              
          pass through Nakajima's resistance heater layer 110
