At a 90% affirmance rate, you are battling strong odds

i swear i didn't look at the answer and my guess is that they were all reversed..at least they look to me like they should have been. the only one that wouldn't make me fall out of my chair if upheld is the third one

When was the line moved and why wasn't I told about it?

I looked at the examiner's evidence in the first case and none of it shows any of the goods listed in the cited registration...ridiculous!

I agree with Gene. I thought they were all reversed. I must be getting too old and time to retire.
