Appeal No. 2001-0783 Application 09/012,796 Notwithstanding this argument, it is our view that the claim language has been given the broadest reasonable interpretation by the examiner. Accordingly, we agree that Kuroi anticipates this broadly worded claim. In summary, we affirm the examiner’s rejections of claims 1-9. No time period for taking any subsequent action in con- nection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a). AFFIRMED WILLIAM F.
