You don't talk too much Breechplug, you just talk too fast.

Paragraph breaks are simple. Simply tap the Enter key twice as I did after typing the sentence above. Breaks do make for easier reading.

Regarding shelf life of GOEX vs. Pyrodex. Real black powder is a mixture of three stable elements that do not degrade. Pyrodex is a compound of whatever stuff they make it from.

A
mixture is the physical combination of substances, bonded together in any proportion. A compound is the chemical combination of elements, bonded together in specific proportion. As such, compounds may degrade while mixtures do not degrade if the mixed substances are stable.
