                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                 
                 This is a decision on an appeal from the refusal of                
            the examiner to allow claims 8-20, 25, 26, and 27.                      
                 Appellant states that all of the claims are grouped                
            together for consideration in this appeal.  (Brief, page                
            6).  The examiner states that “[s]ince appellants fail to               
            separately provide an argument for each of the claims, the              
            group of the appealed claims stands of falls with the
