          Application No. 09/816,348                                                  

          characteristics set forth in claim 11.3                                     
                                      SUMMARY                                         
               The decision of the examiner to reject claims 1 through 4              
          and 6 through 11 is affirmed with respect to claims 1, 3, 4, 6,             
          8, 9 and 11, and reversed with respect to claims 2, 7 and 10.               




















               3 Claim 11 was added to the application in the paper filed on          
          June 27, 2002.  The reinforcing portion limitations in this claim,          
          which are reproduced above, differ significantly from the part of the       
          original disclosure which ostensibly corresponds thereto, i.e., pages       
          22 and 23 in the specification and Figures 12 and 13 in the drawings.       
                                         10
