          Appeal No. 2000-1279                                                        
          Application No. 09/053,025                                                  


          appropriately, appellant points out that the examiner’s                     
          contention is not supported by a reference (reply brief, page               
          2) and that the examiner has used “broadbrush general                       
          statements” (reply brief, page 4) to imply that the subject                 
          matter of the claims on appeal would have been obvious. At                  
          least for the reasons set forth above, the respective                       
          rejections before us cannot be sustained.                                   









               In summary, this panel of the board has not sustained                  
          each of the rejections on appeal.                                           












                                          8
