+     NOTE:  This feature is disabled by Slackware...  we do not ship multi-year
+     old versions, nor do we think it is a good idea to include nag screens
+     that activate when an expiration date is reached.  In this case, the
+     nag screen was activated after only one year, which practically insures
+     that this will be seen before the next stable Slackware release.
+     If there's a problem that needs fixing, we'll issue a fix.
+     No nag screens please.  Thanks for possibly reconsidering this!
