Hey, I'm done. All happy now.

It took 2.5 hours if you count the trip to the store and the clean up. It's a bit more difficult than a straightforward job since the pipes are old cast iron, and the flange isn't quite level. Total cost $5.19 plus maybe $1 in gas/mileage. And I figured out the toilet leaked where the manufacture date is right in the area where the wax ring goes. Makes for a rough surface where you want a smooth one. The wax hadn't filled the depression well, and that's where it leaked. I smeared it in there this time, so I hope it will last. If not, next time I'll buy a different toilet.
