I have some code in front of me which is like this-

<cflock scope="application" type="READONLY" timeout="50">
    <cfset application.myVar = myQuery.myCol>
</cflock>

It's a CF8 in a multi server environment and I was seeing some inconsistencies. 
I always thought that when writing to a scope the lock should be of type 
"exclusive"- to let only request write to data. 

Just wanted to see what others think about locking variables in application or 
session scope for that matter.
