                         The examiner has not adequately shown that those skilled in the art would                        
                 have considered the claims indefinite, or that the claimed method was identically                        
                 disclosed in the prior art.  The rejections under 35 U.S.C. §§ 102(e) and 112,                           
                 second paragraph, are reversed.
