                   Appeal No. 1999-0425                                                                                            
                   Application No. 08/788,969                                                                                      
                   Accordingly, in view of the examiner’s clear failure to set forth a prima facie case of                         
                   obviousness with regard to the instant claimed subject matter, we will not sustain the                          
                   rejection of claims 1-28 under 35 U.S.C. 103.                                                                   
                   The examiner’s decision is reversed.
