[TowerTalk] Words

It kinda depends.  In Georgia, restrictive covenants originally expired
after 20 years, but in the 1990s progressively more strict legislation was
introduced; however, covenants recorded prior to the new legislation
generally weren't affected by the new legislation.

It's very much a state-by-state and case-by-case issue.
