          Application No. 09/313,547                                                  

          hindsight.  See W.L. Gore & Assocs. v. Garlock, Inc., 721 F.2d              
          1551, 1553, 220 USPQ 303, 312-13 (Fed. Cir. 1983), cert. denied,            
          469 U.S. 851 (1984).  It follows that we cannot sustain the                 
          examiner’s section 103 rejection of claims 14-25 as being                   
          unpatentable over the admitted prior art in view of Tsai.                   
               The decision of the examiner is reversed.
