          Appeal No. 2001-1404                                                        
          Application No. 09/145,399                                                  


               We also do not sustain the rejection of claims 2 and 15                
          based upon the combined teachings of Gilchrist, PAXAR 8500,                 
          Parker, and Coast.                                                          


               As set forth above, the basic combination of Gilchrist                 
          and PAXAR 8500, in particular, has not been determined to be                
          sound relative to independent claims 1 and 13, from which                   
          claims 2 and 15 respectively depend.  Accordingly, the                      
          rejection of claims 2 and 15 is likewise unsound.                           


               In summary, this panel of the board has not sustained any              
          of the rejections on appeal.                                                









               The decision of the examiner is reversed.                              


                                      REVERSED                                        


                                         11
