DaveR,

No. My wife is the household investment expert. I have about as much chance of selling her on that as I do of convincing her I am at my right body weight. Success would depend entirely on her sense of humor, something conspicuously absent where finances are concerned.

Mike Irwin,

Interesting bit of history. I wonder why the Alliant web site, which includes mentioning Hercules having been spun off from DuPont in 1912, claims the 1913 introduction of Bullseye? I wonder if it had a different name before that or if they altered the process or formulation in that year?

Ruger4570,

I've never seen a 155 year-old man. Perhaps I am too vain, but I can't imagine it would be flattering. I sure wouldn't look forward to all the knee replacements I'd have to go through before I got there.
