Appeal No. 2000-0464 Application No. 09/023,198 1260, 1265-1266 n.12, 23 USPQ2d 1780, 1783 n.12 (Fed. Cir. 1992). Therefore, as we cannot accept the examiner's proposed modification of Glomb, the examiner again has failed to establish a prima facie case of obviousness. Accordingly, we cannot sustain the obviousness rejection of claims 1 through 8 over Glomb alone. CONCLUSION The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 through 8 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed. REVERSED KENNETH W. HAIRSTON ) Administrative Patent Judge ) ) ) ) ) BOARD OF PATENT JOSEPH L.
