A block of dry ice has a surface temperature of -109.3 degrees Fahrenheit (-78.5 degrees C). Dry ice also has the very nice feature of sublimation -- as it breaks down, it turns directly into carbon dioxide gas rather than a liquid.
Credit Accounts: Negative information remains for 7 years from the initial missed payment that led to the delinquency. Active positive information can remain indefinitely (if an account is closed that has been positive, then it will typically remain on your report for 10 years after the date the account is closed). Collection Accounts: A collection account remains for 7 years from the initial missed payment that led to the collection.
Collection accounts stay on the credit report for seven years from the original delinquency date of the original debt, or the date of the first missed payment after which the account was no longer brought current. You may see both the collection account and the account with your original creditor on the credit report.
