Cookies can be set for any domain by any domain, not just the one visited
at the time. It's common to set a cookie for a pop-up or banner goto so
that if you click it's easy to see who referred the click. Also much more
info can be transfered via a cookie than a formatted url. Many sites fail
to function properly without cookies as they are the main way to capture
your trail, tag you with a unique ID, and then feed you dymanic data.

==================
Each days terror almost a form of boredom
madmen at the wheel and stepping on the gas and the brakes no good
and each day one, sometimes two, morning glories
faultless, blue, blue sometimes flecked with magenta
each lit from within with the first sunlight
