Site certificate warnings are most important when it is a site unknown 
to you.

When it is trusted site, one that you have been visiting for years, the 
more usual assumption should be that there has been some delay in 
arranging for certificate renewal. Especially make this assumption for 
"small" sites. The IT department of a major corporation would have a 
tech team to make sure things like that don't happen. That is not true 
when would be just one person.
