1Opinion of the Court
PREGERSON, Circuit Judge:
In 1993, Richard Tackett applied for Social Security disability insurance benefits under 42 U.S.C. §§ 423(d) and 416(i) of the Social Security Act. In his application, he alleged that he has been disabled since September 16, 1991. In March of 1995, the Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) determined that under the Guidelines2 Tackett’s severe knee problems qualified him as disabled since his fiftieth birthday on February 7th, 1995, but that Tackett was not qualified as disabled from September 16, 1991 until February 6, 1995, the day before his fiftieth birthday.
