                 Before WINTERS, ROBINSON, and GRIMES, Administrative Patent Judges.                                    
                 GRIMES, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                                   

                                               DECISION ON APPEAL                                                       
                        An oral hearing in this case was scheduled for November 27, 2001.  Upon                         
                 reviewing the case, however, we have determined that an oral hearing will not be                       
                 necessary and we render the following decision based on the record.                                    
                        This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the examiner’s                          
                 final rejection of claims 1 -66.  Claims 1, 17, 29, 41, and 53 are representative                      
                 and read as follows:
