Thanks for answering a question with another (less than useful)
question.

I still drive 1998 and 1979 Ford Trucks.  `The replace by date' is
problably something like 2008 on the 1998, and 1989 on the 1979.

[ (- 2018 1987) 31 - OMG & double Yikes]. I've been using outdated
machinery for 31 years.

I probably shouldn't have posted that. It might end in me doing time
if the `Out dated' police see this. (Or even just for being overly
silly .. he he).
