The opinion
FAGG, Circuit Judge,

In my view, the judgment should be affirmed. The Administrative Law Judge’s opinion denying benefits embodies a clear application of the legal principles that control this case, and the decision is supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole. Thus, I dissent.
