There are two issues with what you've stated. First, the cookie scope can
very well persist; it doesn't persist if you omit the EXPIRES attribute in
your CFCOOKIE tag, which will create what is often called a "session
cookie". Second, if the client has cookies completely disabled, this will
include session cookies, so you'd then have to pass the CFID and CFTOKEN
values from the browser to the server on each subsequent request, either via
URL or Form variables.
