          Appeal No. 1997-2021                                                        
          Application No. 08/500,231                                                  


          way                                                                         




          mirror feature of the claimed invention.  We required proper,               
          additional declarations from the three earlier noted                        
          individuals subsequent to our earlier decision on appeal to                 
          obviate any sub-                                                            
          issue with respect to the special considerations as well as                 
          the assertion of private experimental use also discussed at                 
          the bottom of page 6 of our last decision in Appeal No. 94-                 
          1463 to which we made specific reference and incorporated by                
          reference into our original opinion in March of this year                   
          (2000). Paragraphs 46 and 47 of appellant's request for                     
          rehearing merely indicate that appellant's attempts to seek                 
          the subsequent declarations "were unsuccessful".  In paragraph              
          47 of the request for rehearing appellant urges the allowance               
          of claim 31 and its dependent claims "because these                         
          indiviguals [sic] said it was too long ago to specifically                  
          recall details about their involvement with the booth."  On                 
          their face, appellant's urgings do not convince us of any                   
          error in our original opinion as to any subissue relating to                
                                          9
