If you meant to say "until next year", I agree.

Um, yeah. :)
But a TTL that high is just really bad design and you deserve whatever
problems occur as a result. More than a few hours is awfully high. If
you have to set it higher because of server load, then you need
more/bigger servers or you're getting hit with a denial of service attack.
