         Appeal No. 2000-1713                                                    
         Application 09/025,551                                                  


         Furthermore, the examiner has not explained whether the forces          
         in Miller cause elastic deformation or deformation as defined           
         in appellants' specification.  We note that the secondary               
         reference of Yamaki does not cure these deficiencies of                 
         Miller.                                                                 
              Therefore, we determine that the examiner has not set              
         forth a prima facie case.
