Appeal No. 2002-1554
Application 08/003,996
The examiner's reasoning that the claimed electromagnetic
signals are nonstatutory subject matter because signals are
"transitory and ephemeral in nature" is not persuasive. We
decline to expand the analysis beyond the scope of the reasons
given by the examiner. The rejection of claims 2-51 is reversed.
