   I see why I didn't want to tackle this.  Lot's of code there.

   All I really want to do is check to see if the last bar date is
older than X days from today.   I'm filtering for stale dates, and ran
into a problem with the simple way I did this when the year rolled over.

  Surely theres a less cumbersome way.
