          Appeal No. 2000-1011                                                        
          Application 09/042,761                                                      


          content of the prior art and the differences between the prior              
          art and the claimed subject matter with respect to eight                    
          groups of claims.  We, like the appellants, find it difficult               
          to even respond to such a rejection.  We do emphasize that in               
          no way can it establish a proper evidentiary basis for a prima              
          facie case of obviousness.  The art rejections of claims 1                  
          through 14 and 17 through 19 are reversed.                                  



















               In summary we have reversed all rejections on appeal.                  
                                      REVERSED                                        


                                          8
