          Before JERRY SMITH, RUGGIERO, and GROSS, Administrative Patent              
          Judges.                                                                     
          JERRY SMITH, Administrative Patent Judge.                                   
                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
          This is a decision on the appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134                      
          from the examiner’s final rejection of claims 1-18, which                   
          constituted all the claims in the application.  An amendment                
          after final rejection was filed on October 17, 2003 and was                 
          entered by the examiner.  This amendment cancelled claim 16.                
          Therefore, this appeal is directed to the rejection of claims 1-            
          15, 17 and 18.
