          Appeal No. 2002-1280                                                        
          Application 08/995,996                                                      

               In summary, we find that the examiner has failed to                    
          establish a prima facie case of obviousness as to the independent           
          claims.  The rejection of claims 1, 3-5, 8, 9, 12, and 13 is                
          reversed.                                                                   
                                      REVERSED
