          Application No. 08/596,343                                                   


          arguments thereagainst.  Only those arguments actually made by               
          the appellants have been considered in this decision.                        
          Arguments which the appellants could have made but chose not                 
          to make in the briefs have not been considered.  See 37 CFR §                
          1.192(a).                                                                    




                                       OPINION                                         
               In reaching our decision in this appeal, we have                        
          carefully considered the subject matter on appeal, the                       
          rejections advanced by the examiner, and the evidence of                     
          obviousness relied upon by the examiner as support for the                   
          rejections.  We have, likewise, reviewed and taken into                      
          consideration, in reaching our decision, the appellants'                     
          arguments set forth in the briefs along with the examiner's                  
          rationale in support of the rejections and arguments in                      
          rebuttal set forth in the examiner's answer.                                 
               It is our view, after consideration of the record before                
          us, that the evidence relied upon and the level of skill in                  
          the particular art would not have suggested to one of ordinary
