 When I rebuilt the fallback list last week, there were no expired
 consensuses. I used to get several every time I ran the script.

 want to update the stem script to notice relays that give a 404 response,
 since maybe that means they have an expired consensus and are just
 choosing not to give it to us.)

 There were no 404 errors either.

 Since the fallbacks are just a sample of the high-uptime, high-bandwidth
 relays in the network, we should check the entire network to be sure.
