Kodak's HIE does not keep as well.  The current batch from which I am
shooting expired in 1997 and that film is fine (again, I keep all film
frozen until use), but I tossed some from 1992 that had too much base fog.

I have a brick of color IR that I will begin to shoot this summer.  It
expired October 1998, but I don't think I'll have any problems with it.
