I'm using session variables and NOT client variables.  So, yes, I am 
maintaining state with cookies.  But how do these cookies interact 
with cflocation.  My understanding is cookies are not passed with a 
cflocation, so how does cf know my cfid and cftoken immediately 
following a cflocation if cookies are not passed and addtoken=No?  
Is it simply because I am the only user at the time?

(BTW, this is a corporate Intranet site with few users. I'm using CF 
4.01, hoping to go to 4.5 soon.)

Actually, this raises another question.  I understand for clustering, 
you need to use client variables.  But for a low profile site such as 
this, I don't feel that will ever be a need.  Is clustering the ONLY 
reason there is a preference to client variables over session 
variables.  I always use session management and never use client 
managment.  I'm wondering if I need to re-think this.  What are the 
advantages/disadvantages?  

This concept has alluded me for some time.

All of your comments are greatly appreciated.  This listserv is a 
great resource!!
