Send something in the past, but not that far... It might decide to ignore
you if you lie that much.

I think having too many of these is going to mess you up...

If you really want to guaranteee no cahing in all browsers for all time,
the random URL is the way to go. It's a shame that browsers will ignore
the caching headers, but since they do, I don't feel guilty making them
suck down more images then they should.
