          Appeal No. 1999-0256                                       Page 8           
          Application No. 08/828,616                                                  


          accorded one who first viewed the appellant’s disclosure.                   
          This, of course, is not a proper basis for establishing                     
          obviousness.  See In re Fritch, 972 F.2d 1260, 1266, 23 USPQ2d              
          1780, 1784 (Fed. Cir. 1992).
