           Reissue Application 10/155,945                                                            
           Patent 5,311,959                                                                          
       1         E.  Additional remarks                                                              
       2         We do not know whether Applicant has considered the possibility of a                
       3   certificate of correction to try to overcome the error in patent claim 1.  We             
       4   express no views on whether a certificate of correction is appropriate and if             
       5   filed how a petition for a certificate of correction might or should be                   
       6   decided.

       8         F.  Decision and order                                                              
       9         Upon consideration of the record, including the copy of the patent file

      12   1-5 as being unpatentable under the fourth paragraph of 35 U.S.C. § 251 is                
      13   affirmed.                                                                                 
      14               FURTHER ORDERED that the decision of the Examiner

      17               FURTHER ORDERED that the provisions of 37 CFR § 1.136(a) are
