Hello!
Yup, that's me - my ATG back in 1984 worked wonderfully for nearly 25 years... There was someone else in here who has gone 25 years as well, but not many have lasted longer (mostly because ATG wasn't done much earlier than the early 80s AFAIK). Prof Marsh told me that they know now that ATG usually only lasts for 5-15 years, but back when I had it they told my parents I was cured for life!
But I'd agree - don't get too worried over one isolated dip.
