          April 28, 2006 wherein we affirmed the examiner's rejections of             
          all the appealed claims under 35 U.S.C. § 103.                              
               We have thoroughly reviewed the points made in appellant's             
          Request, but we remain of the opinion that the claimed subject              
          matter would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the
