                                  DECISION ON APPEAL                                  
               This is an appeal of the rejection of claims 25 through 27, 29         
          through 37, 39, 40, 42 through 46 and 48.  Claims 28, 38, 41 and 47         
          have been objected to as depending from rejected base claims, but           
          would be allowable if rewritten in independent claim form including         
          all of the limitations of the base claims and any intervening               
          claims.
