Man,
Remove stick pls?
A constructor is used to set the initial values of your properties, and to
execute any functions you need to when you create your object.
The "component body" can be used for the same thing. Why get stuck on the
semantics. I think if you were to take a Java developer who had never seen
CF before and explain it in these terms that are easy to translate, he is
going to appreciate it.

Not true. An array is defined as a collection of identically typed data
items distinguished by their indices. A zero based array is the same
thing as a one based array. In fact, there is no rule that an array need
to be zero or one based. This is certainly true with associative arrays
(called a structs in CF). An associative array is one where the indices
are not just integers but may be arbitrary strings.
