wouldnt using the words "safety" and "microsoft" in the same sentence and have 
a direct meaning to one another be slanderous statement? makes me wanna 
barfffffff

thats funny, the perception that is.
and thats the exact route i would take to fight it.
running it on a windows server pretty much puts a target on your back, wouldnt 
it be "safer" to run cfm on a linux server? Not to mention their constant 
"updating" woes.

and then before u mentioned something about not knowing if what ur proposing 
will even be around in a few yrs.

u mean like m$ did with asp? and im sure will do again with .net

coldfusion was here before asp (if i recall correctly) and it still here now & 
it will be here tomorrow, i wouldnt put a mexican peso on .net out living cfm. 
im sure the next version will be called ".shortNet" haha
