I had a tube that was made in the month I was born. It had ~25
patches in it. Its demise, at age 35 or so, was a tire that should
have been replaced a few miles before it split down the middle of the
tread.
Oh, what horrible loss! More triggering than those last-second appendectomy
stories! Was there no way to at least save the the date stamp by cutting
it out and turning it into a new patch?
