PTO states they will review all again. As I am a private entity w/o
attorney they are committed to supplying assistance. Have about 25
days to resolve, so all is not lost.

Good luck. As I previously ranted, the obvious stumbling block is the
user of the term "random" array of elements. If the examiner
interprets that as "arbitrary", then your patent is too general to be

Ignore the applications and concentrate on the patents that have been
issued. Compare these patents with your application. You should see
fairly quickly what you're missing. (Hint: References and Citations).
