This evidence deserves at least some weight and should have been weighed with the other evidence of record. Cf. In re Alton, 76 F.3d 1168, 1173-74 (Fed. Cir. 1996) (holding as error the failure to consider declaration evidence concerning questions of fact, and the summary dismissal, without adequate explanation, of the declaration as rebuttal evidence.). The Declaration need not prove that all contractors skilled in the art would have not found the method obvious.

Alton, In re, 76 F.3d 1168, 37 USPQ2d 1578 (Fed. Cir. 1996) 2145, 2163, 2163.06, 2164.05

Rather, "[i]t is the specification, not the knowledge of one skilled in the art, that must supply the novel aspects of an invention in order to constitute adequate enablement." GENENTECH, INC v.

BMW of North America, 501 F. 3d 1274, 1283 ("Although the knowledge of one skilled in the art is indeed relevant, the novel aspect of an invention must be enabled in the patent.")
