Mea culpa...

Many years ago, I worked for a backpacking outfitter. (HBO, before they had to change the name because of the cable channel.)

I was instructed to make a sign for a thermos that had a five year warrantee.

The sign I made said, "Guaranteed to keep food or beverages hot or cold for up to five years".

I hope I'm not that dense any more, but sometimes I wonder.
