                         We affirm the examiner’s rejection for lack of written description, do not                           
                  reach the rejection for nonenablement, and recommend that the definiteness of                               
                  the claims be considered in any further prosecution.                                                        
                         No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this                              
                  appeal may be extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a).
