It's hard to tell from their scoring system which the three borderline
ones were, though.

Interestingly, the seven "clear failures" exhibit a strong correlation
between quality and time - the points get lower as they get older. For
the other articles, there's little or no correlation between the time
since they passed FAC (or FAR) and their quality.

I suspect this points up a problem with maintenance more than initial
quality, but we shall see.
