                Appeal No. 2000-1272                                                                            
                Application No. 08/861,095                                                                      


                       For the foregoing reasons we cannot agree that the evidence adduced by the               
                examiner is sufficient to establish a prima facie case of obviousness of the claimed            
                subject matter.                                                                                 
                       The examiner’s decision to reject claims 1 through 3, 5, 7 through 12 and 17             
                through 19 under § 103 is therefore reversed.                                                   

                                                  REVERSED
