Just happened to look at the MeFi source

Just happened to look at the MeFi source and realized that it contains no fewer than ten META tags, all identical expiration directives with a date in 1990. Is this some kind of workaround for a weird browser bug with expiring pages from its cache? If so I'm mildly curious to hear which browser needs ten copies of the tag to take the hint. ;)

It must be in some stupid canned code I'm using. I think it's the IP banning code (yep, I'm banning ten IP ranges currently so it makes sense). I'll check if I can see into the source and knock that useless code out.
