          Appeal No. 2002-2204                                                        
          Application 09/187,897                                                      


          the claims on appeal.                                                       



          In summary, we find that the examiner has established a                     
          prima facie case of anticipation with respect to each of the                
          claims on appeal, and appellants have failed to challenge this              
          prima facie case with any substantive arguments.  Therefore, the            
          decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1-37 is affirmed.                 
                                                                                     






















                                         -6-
