         Appeal No. 2007-0023                                                       
         Application No. 10/410,854                                                 
         is axially hollow completely through the fastener.  The examiner           
         does not rely upon Wescott for any disclosure that remedies the            
         above-discussed deficiency in Nodière and Taylor as to that claim          
         requirement.  Accordingly, we reverse the rejections of claims             
         25, 26, 28, 29, 38, 40, 41, 44, 47, 48, 50, 53 and 54.  Because            
         the examiner does not rely upon Costello for any disclosure that           
         remedies the deficiency in Nodière, Taylor and Wescott as to the           
         claims from which claims 32, 36, 42, 49, 51 and 52 depend, we              
         also reverse the rejection of those claims.
