comparing the string - The actual CFIF is checking for the value returned
back from this Compare which is going to be -1,0,1 which is not
Boolean.....the code Matt listed is checking for a boolean value (well he is
assuming its 1 or 0 / True / False).
I am not sure how CF treats -1 - i.e. does it treat it as False? This is
classic case of using ColdFusion's typelessness to your advantage.

No, he is checking for a string, not a Boolean. Boolean is either 1/0 or
true/false but not "y" or "n".
