          Appeal No. 2001-2292                                                       
          Application No. 09/072,172                                                 

               clear because of the claimed test values [examiner’s                  
               answer, page 4].                                                      
               For the reasons discussed above in connection with the 35             
          U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph, rejection, the examiner’s position          
          here is unfounded.                                                         
               Therefore, we shall not sustain the standing 35 U.S.C. §              
          112, second paragraph, rejection of claims 9, 14 through 16, 18            
          and 28.                                                                    
                                      SUMMARY                                        
               The decision of the examiner to reject claims 9, 14 through           
          16, 18 and 28 is reversed.                                                 
                                      REVERSED
