The Skinny T/E was discontinued in 1989 so the most recent ones are now more 
than ten years old.  I figure that if a T/E hasn't gone bad by now it won't.  
For those who own clear ones, I wouldn't sell it out of fear.  For those 
contemplating buying one, I'd surely check it out with a light, but if it was 
clear I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.
