Jeff,
If you're using CFHTTP, why not drag the content directly into a CF query?
Once its in a query, it will be a lot easier to handle. If you need to
sort it, you could just QofQ it into the order you need. You will need
to be careful with the dates, but again, I think you can probably QofQ
your data to get the dates into year, month and day, making them more
useful. I'm just not sure what CF's coverage of SQL functions is like
and haven't been able to quickly find a good reference of these.
