          are present and the sequence length is 3 to 50 monomer units”               
          (emphasis added) to define a product produced by a                          
          polymerization process which is conventional but for the use                
          of a catalyst composition comprising a metallocene compound of              
          formula (I), which lacks bi-lateral symmetry;                               
                    II.  In Claims 32-35 of Application 08/147,006                    
          (Paper No. 64, Appendix 1)(Appendix D), Dolle employs the                   
          phrase “used to make a catalyst to produce syndio-isoblock                  
          polymers having molecular chains in which syndiotactic and                  
          isotactic sequences are present and the sequence length is 3                
          to 50 monomer units” (emphasis added) in conjunction with the               
          specific metallocene compounds and catalysts shown in formula               
          I;                                                                          
                    III.  In Claims 4, 16, 19, and 31 (“propylene or”                 
          omitted from, and [a hydrogen atom or] added to, Claim 31)                  
          (Appendix D) of Application 08/147,006, Dolle employs the                   
          phrase “by polymerization of propylene or an olefin of the                  
          formula RCH=CHR’ in which R and R’ are identical or different               
          and are                                                                     
          [a hydrogen atom or] an alkyl radical having 1 to 14 carbon                 
          atoms or R and R’ combine with the carbon atoms joining them                
          together to form a ring” to specify the olefins from which “a
