Basically a cached object is:
#
#               FRESH if expires < now, else STALE
#               STALE if age > max
#               FRESH if lm-factor < percent, else STALE
#               FRESH if age < min
#               else STALE
#


This a sort of algorithm I read in the squid.conf file of Squid 2.5 Stable7.
What I don't get is the first line states that an object is fresh if the
expiry time is less than the current time. As I see it if the expiry time
has passed and the current time is larger than that how come ab object can
be fresh or else stale.
