Best Answer

So you know if what you're reading is from 1960 or 2009. It's entirely relevant to a lot of content. For example, if you read a science article from 1985, there's a great chance a more recent article on the same topic will be far more accurate and informative. However, you might assume this old article is from last week, then cite it as a current fact to other people while there's actually more new and better information available.
