Yeah, this is all I care to post. Was hoping someone else had run into similar situation or had anecdotal knowledge that anything >2 years (aside from bankruptcy/late payments) didn't really matter.

I'll lay off for a few months and try again. If I wait until I'm at 2/24 and get denied again I'll know something else is up and see what I can do to dig deeper. Maybe I just don't need to do business with AMEX... Chase seems more than happy to provide credit and work with me. I'm sitting on a mountain of UR points and thought I'd try to diversify a bit.
