I had this happen to all three of the Lillian's Yellow tomatoes I started this year. The seed was from 2008, germinated quickly, but stalled with just two healthy cotyledons. I planted them in honor of my grandmother, Lillian. Disappointing to say the least, but you confirmed my suspicions. I figured it might be due to age.
