Since the expirable mark is exclusive of other marks and thus not a toggle, I usually do `C-u 1000 M-u' on all the expirable articles (1000 of them here) and then mark them as needed. I think once an article is expirable, you can't go back to the marks it had before (unless you `Q'uick-quit out of the group). Ted
