To paraphrase a popular figure of the late 20th Century, I guess it depends on the meaning of "in." If you're not in Iraq, I'd have to recommend change.
Conversely, although I've had my screen name for well over four years, it's going to be a long time before I can no longer justify calling myself a "new" geezer. Also, unlike your chosen name, mine will always boil down to a matter of opinion. ;O)
thanks....
I need an undecided category :)
