          Application No.08/475,127                                                  

          variables.  In re Dunn, 349 F.2d 433, 439, 46 USPQ 479, 483                
          (CCPA 1965).                                                               
              In view of the above, we determine that the rebuttal                   
          evidence presented by appellants is insufficient.                          
              We therefore affirm the rejection of record.                           
              No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                   
          § 1.136(a).
