                    This is a decision on appeal under 35 USC § 134(a) from the Examiner's                         
             final rejection of claims 23-28 and 30.  Claims 31-34 and 36 are allowed.  Claim                      
             29 is objected to as being dependent upon a rejected independent claim.  Claims 1-                    
             22 and 35 have been canceled.                                                                         
                    We REVERSE.
