Whoa there! I never suggested getting rid of the 1983 date. In fact, I'm duty bound to respect that date.
What I suggested was, if there was sufficient interest, or sentiment, and with our Listmeister's approval (it's his site after-all) creating another, or adjunct, web-site, such as "CR II, or CR Jr.," etc., with an alternate time frame-slightly more extended.
