The following rejections are before us for review.
Claims 18 through 20, 15, and 16 stand rejected under
35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as being anticipated by Tait.
Claims 2 and 5 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as2
being unpatentable over Tait in view of Buyze.
Claim 7 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being
unpatentable over Tait in view of Fisher.
Claims 9, 10, and 13 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. §
103(a) as being unpatentable over Tait in view of Moore.
Claim 14 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as
