DECISION ON APPEAL
Appellants have appealed to the board from the examiner's final rejection of claims
1, 2 and 6 through 10. The examiner has objected to claims 3 through 5 as being
dependent upon a rejected base claim, further indicating that they would be allowable if
rewritten in independent form including all of the limitations of the base claim and any
intervening claims.
