Therefore, we reverse the obviousness rejection of claim 1; of claims 2-4, which
depend therefrom; of claim 7; of claims 8-11, 13, and 14, which depend therefrom; of
claim 17; of claims 18-21, which depend therefrom; of claim 23; and of claims 24 and

CONCLUSION
In summary, the rejection of claims 1-4, 7-11, 13, 14, 16-21, and 23-25 under
§ 103(a) is reversed.
