Perfect!  After seeing your message, I was able to find a Custom Tag
cf_ClientTimeout which does exactly that.  That takes care of my problem.

So long as I can check to see if a Client variable is older than 20 minutes,
I can definitely make this work.

Thanks!

Perhaps a client structure, containing something like loginid and
timestamp.  Check to see if the loginid has timed out (Your own custom
value here, nothing ColdFusion specific)
