                  Application No. 09/335,189                                                                                    



                          In summary we will not sustain the examiner’s rejection of claims 26                                  
                  through 31 under 35 U.S.C.  § 103.  Additionally, appellants and the examiner                                 
                  should take appropriate steps to correct the noted ambiguities in the claims.  The                            
                  decision of the examiner is reversed.
