                                   _______________                                    
          Before FRANKFORT, STAAB, and McQUADE, Administrative Patent                 
          Judges.                                                                     
          STAAB, Administrative Patent Judge.                                         
                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               David Clark Pollack appeals from the examiner’s final                  
          rejection of claims 1, 2 and 8-22 and 24-37.1  Claims 3-7 have              
          been canceled.                                                              


               1Appellant states on page 1 of the brief that the finally              
          rejected claims are “claims 1, 2, 8-22 and 24-37 (claim 23 having           
          erroneously not been submitted).”  The appendix of claims on                
          appeal attached to appellant’s brief follows this claim                     
          numbering.  In accordance with 37 CFR § 1.126, claims 24-37                 
          should be renumbered claims 23-36, respectively.  In this                   
          decision, in order to avoid confusion, we will follow the claim             
          numbering found in the aforementioned appendix of claims.
