               Appeal No. 2000-1444                                                                        Page 6                  
               Application No. 09/040,245                                                                                          


               and Held fail to establish a prima facie case of obviousness with respect to the method                             
               recited in claim 1, and we will not sustain the rejection of this claim or, it follows, of claims                   
               2-10, which depend therefrom.                                                                                       
                       Independent claim 11 sets forth the invention in somewhat different terms, but                              
               contains the same limitations.  On the basis of the rationale expressed above with regard                           
               to claim 1, we also will not sustain the rejection of claims 11-18.                                                 




















                                                          SUMMARY                                                                  
                       The rejection is not sustained.
