Nobody does that, but it really IS a good idea to change it because 
it absorbs water out of the air, gets corrosive, and causes rust in 
the system. If you use DoT-5 silicone brake fluid then this 
becomes unnecessary.

Why not come back next year just before the type 3 invasion and 
do a brake overhaul and silicone implant?  ;-)
