You got it. Basically a way of giving each instance a unique number. For what 
reason? I have no idea. Much better ways to accomplish exactly the same thing. 
The app came out shortly after CFC's came about, so I think there was some 
irrational exuberance about objects in play. Some people have gotten over that 
mindset, and others have gotten even worse. Sometimes I long for the days when 
CF was actually simple. There are people in the community that are trying to 
make it as complex as Java. When CF reaches that point, I'll just quit doing it 
and write Java code instead. Why deal with a middle man if the coding is going 
to be equally hard? This isn't me ranting about a desire to get rid of CFC's, 
far from it, but I do think that not everything has to be an object and not 
everything needs to be some pristine example of OO genius. I find "necessary 
complexity" (meaning simplicity) to be far more elegant.

I'll take your word on it.  Let me guess - they are generating a UUID
in the init() of every CFC, and instantiating a new CFC for each day,
week, month, and event - and more.
