Yes (see notes for more)

1. All CGI variables that exist are stored in a structure called CGI.
2. A len() should be used to determine if a CGI variable exists because (for
 some reason) it will ALWAYS exist. You can test this by outputting the
 following:
<CFOUTPUT>
#cgi.thisisafakevar# - #len(cgi.thisisafakevar)#
</CFOUTPUT>
3. you can see a 'true' list of CGI variables by using this code:
<CFLOOP collection="#cgi#" item="i">
<CFOUTPUT>#i# #cgi[i]#</cfoutput><BR>
</cfloop>
