Mauro, I believe that some web servers cache the data based off of the URL, so by adding a date/time stamp, it provides a unique URL and the server will not cache the result. You could probably achieve the same thing by simply adding a counter that increments every time your command is called, but that is not quite as simple or easy as the date method.
