Perhaps I should take things less seriously and have a chuckle.

I've been banging my head on the wall with an early tube MPX decoder in a radio that will recognize the 19KHz from a generator but not a station...I have to complete this and some design improvements to the set in a few days. The pressure is making me a bit edgy.

That said your experience leads me to have completely different feelings about vintage capacitors than you, and whats left of my understanding of college engineering reliability statistics tells me I shouldn't change my mind.
