          Appeal No. 1999-2306                                                        
          Application 08/639,284                                                      


          recites a plurality of steps which are clearly not disclosed                
          by Lane and cannot properly be considered to be inherently                  
          performed in Lane.  Therefore, we do not sustain the                        
          examiner’s rejection of claim 28.                                           
          In summary, we have sustained the examiner’s                                
          anticipation rejection with respect to claims 18, 20 and 21,                
          but we have not sustained the rejection with respect to each                
          of the other claims on appeal.  Therefore, the decision of the              
          examiner rejecting claims 1-28 is affirmed-in-part.
