Yup managed to confuse myself reading the manual.

I have an numerically indexed array that consists of fragments of
a prescription.
Rarely I may have an array element in the form of:

[Alert: This Rx was initially created on 1/27/2014.]

I want to delete those array elements (probably using
array_slice), but first I need to figure out which array elements
match the pattern. The date may change and will use one or two
digit days and months.
I could just look for the first part of the element, but I want
to be prepared for the people upstream (over whom I have no
influence - different company) to add other Alerts, some of which
I will want to ignore, some of which I may want to keep.

I am certainly open to other suggestions.
