Nope, the auto workers have a 30 year retirement plan. For example, my Wife

There are no real averages at that point.
Re-reading that, what I meant to say is that averages don't mean much
at that point.

There may well be quite a bit of plastic floating around in the motor,
the oil pan may have to be dropped
not sure.
Yes, Im sure there is still a good bit of plastic floating around.
