+	By default, if the ICP, HTCP, Cache Digest, etc. techniques
+	do not yield a parent cache, Squid gives higher preference
+	to forwarding the request direct to origin servers, rather
+	than selecting a parent cache anyway.
+
+	If you want Squid to give higher precedence to a parent
+	cache, instead of going direct, then turn this option off.
