I think I speak for all people in all places and at all times in condemning
the very asking of such a question! Nah--I'm lying. There's nothing wrong
with the question. The reason for attributes is that if a CF page is called
as a custom tag, then the variables sent to it must be prefixed with the
attributes. notation. Instead of having two versions of the code, we just
convert everything to an attributes scope and are finished with it.

OK, I'm now going to ask a question that is so shocking, so inane, that I've
gotta gotta ask it.
I have never understood fully the benefits of using attributes. scoped
variables instead of form. or url. scoped variables. Could somebody please
enlighten me? I'm sure I got beat up on the CF Developer's test on those
questions...
