Thanks for clarifying that. I remembered doing 10 years and then finding 
out I no longer could, without realizing some were new domains and the 
others renewals. I wasn't going crazy (any more than usual, that is).

I should have remembered the 10 year rule. I'd read about it and then 
forgot it. Thanks for reminding me.
