I've been reading this seemingly ambiguous term everywhere for quite some
time and am unable to settle on a definitive explanation of what a "legacy"
application is.

Is a legacy application one that existed before a certain chronological
cutoff point ?  Am I a legacy programmer ?
If I write code on the same system, in much the same manner,
as those that did before the "cutoff point" should I modify
my resume to duly note that I am indeed well versed in coding
legacy apps ?

And if I can code in "legacy" and "non-legacy" languages, so
to speak, am I then bi-lingual ?  :)
